Ph.D. (Geology) / The Paleoproterozoic (i.e. 2500 Ma to 1600 Ma) apparent polar wander path (APWP) for the Kaapvaal craton (KC) is not well constrained, due to the lack of reliable paleopoles and absence of numerical ages for existing poles. In addition, the duration of emplacement, and timing of remanence acquisition of the Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS) and other units of the Bushveld Large Igneous Province (LIP) are still unclear. During the present paleomagnetic study, samples were collected from the small intrusions that occur around the RLS and that are believed to be related to the Bushveld LIP for the establishment of new paleomagnetic and virtual geomagnetic poles. In addition, samples from post-Transvaal sills and dykes were targeted for U-Pb dating and geochemical analyses. Geochronological and geochemical data helped to constrain the timing of the newly defined paleopoles. These paleopoles were used in conjunction with previously published ones from KC to evaluate the APWP for this craton during the Paleoproterozoic. Two of the studied post-Transvaal sills in the eastern KC revealed U-Pb ages that are identical to the age recently reported from the Marginal Zone of the RLS. Geochemical signatures of sill samples were in very good agreement with the newly obtained ages. New ages and geochemical data provided constraints on the magnetic components recorded by the sills. The results confirm the existence of B1 Bushveld magma-related sills on KC as well as pre and post-Bushveld sills as previously suggested. Particularly, dataset from the B1 Bushveld magma-related sills allowed for understanding the magnetic history of the RLS at the early stages (Marginal Zone) of its formation. Paleomagnetic sampling of the Uitkomst Complex provided constraints on the remanence acquisition of this complex and also helped to understand the timing of the Bushveld magmatism outside of the main complex. Paleomagnetic data from a post-Transvaal dolerite dyke swarm near Lydenburg revealed a complex magnetic history. Characteristic magnetic components constrained by geochemical analyses were not similar to the RLS, but indicate probable relationship to other units of the Bushveld LIP. The new ages generated in this study coupled to those previously obtained from the upper layers of the RLS suggested that this suite emplaced within a time period of at least 4 million years. Paleomagnetic results from the B1 Bushveld magma-related sills and available data from the upper layers of the RLS reveal that during the RLS emplacement, the Earth’s magnetic field reversed at least eight times. These results, together with data from the Lydenburg dykes, further indicate a minimum of nine changes in polarity of the Earth’s magnetic field during the formation of the Bushveld LIP. During the present study, new pole positions of different reliability were added to the existing paleomagnetic database for the KC. Paleopoles from the Paleoproterozoic database of the KC (including those generated in the present study) were used to propose a new APWP for this craton from ~2200 Ma to ~1800 Ma. Particularly, poles from the B1 Bushveld magma-related sills and Uitkomst Complex provide the information to identify striking features in the APWP of the Paleoproterozoic KC.
