21· There is mineralogical, chemical and isotopic evidence that the layered mafic-ultramafic sequence of the Bushveld Complex, the Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS), was formed through at least 4 major pulses of replenishing magma (e.g., Eales, 2002; Kruger, 2005; Cawthorn, 2015).

R. Grant Cawthorn Abstract The mafic rocks of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa, were emplaced into a stable cratonic shield some 2.06 b.y. ago, and have remained remarkably well preserved from deformation, metamorphism and low temperature alteration, at least partly by its isostatic impact on the entire crustal thickness. The generation and emplacement of possibly 1 …
