201661· Abstract The Bushveld Complex (South Africa) is the largest layered intrusion on Earth and plays a considerable role in our understanding of magmatic differentiation and ore-forming processes. In this study, we present new geochemical data for apatite-hosted multiphase inclusions in gabbroic cumulates from the Bushveld Upper Zone.

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 …

Recently, our interest has been focused on the upper zone of the Rustenburg Layered Suite of the Bushveld Complex with its abundant thick layers of mono- minerallic magnetite (Cawthorn and Mc Carthy, 1980 and 1981).

12· Many layered intrusions are considered to have been repeatedly inflated by magma additions, but rates of magma mixing relative to rates of layer accumulation are difficult to model. The nature of magma recharge through the interval including the Pyroxenite Marker (PM), Main Zone, Bushveld Complex, South Africa, is examined with regard to such processes. The …

Detailed trace-element analyses of pure magnetite from four continuous borehole intersections through the main magnetitite layer from the upper zone of the Rustenburg Layered Suite of the Bushveld Complex are presented. One section has been analysed at one centimetre intervals. Rapid depletion of Cr occurs over short, vertical sequences near the base of the layer, which …

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).
