Figure 4.5 shows the different forms present on the property, with (a) showing the most
dominating form of limestone in the project area which in most places, is weathered to
a dark-grey to black colour. (b) Is the same form of limestone as (a), that occurs on
gentle to flat slopes. The gentle slope makes it a favourable environment for chemical
weathering, which leaves visible marks on the limestone. (c) Is a form of limestone which
forms a thick hard crust indicating precipitation marks on the surface. The limestone is
in contact with dolomite on the west, north and south, and is in contact with slate (Fig
4.5) on the east, north east and south east of the property.
