Sterkfontein cave system : evolution of a karst form

Thesis (M.A.(Geography & Environmental Studies)) -- University of the Witwatersrand, Arts Faculty, 1973 / The Sterkfontein Cave System is a karst cave developed on the dolomites of the Transvaal system, fifty kilometres north-west of Johannesburg in South Africa. It lies beneath a small hill and was first exploited as a source of lime. Later it became a tourist and scientific attraction of world renown when some of the first australopithecine remains were recovered from a deposit within it. [Abbreviated abstract.
