The majority of South Africa s population is urbanised and has hardly any prospect due to various constraints of ever visiting natural or even man made wilderness areas for recreational purposes
Four reactive flow through laboratory experiments two each at mL/min and mL/min flow rates at 150°C and 150 bar 15 MPa are conducted on intact basalt cores to assess changes in porosity permeability and surface area caused by CO 2 rich fluid rock decreases slightly during the lower flow rate experiments and

All these Precambrian rocks are previously divided into different rock assemblages and domains like Aba Sina Chochi and Kata domains Alemu and Abebe 2000 The details of these rock assemblages with lithology localities and geological structures are well explained on the modified geological map of the area Fig 1 b
To overcome this basalt can be applied in a pelletized form to disintegrate again when applied in soils Avoiding additional grinding of basalt quarry fines which may not be warranted in terms of additional carbon sequestration gains Lewis et al 2021 can also reduce dust formation Co benefits of Basalt Amendment in Alkaline Soils

INTRODUCTION According to Hofmann et al 1997 most of the Ethiopian flood basalts erupted 30 Myr ago during a short 1 Myr period to form a vast volcanic after this peak of activity a number of large shield volcanoes developed on the surface of the volcanic plateau after which subsequent volcanism was largely confined to
The Sterkspruit Complex exposed at the base of the Karoo flood basalts in South Africa is a complex of mostly massive volcaniclastic rocks dikes and lava that fills a crater > 45 km 2 cut into country rock and is surrounded by a blanket of more distal bedded volcaniclastic rocks The moderately to steeply inward dipping margins of the crater are
