Significance
Low
Acritarchs (organic-walled microfossils) in all formations
Potential for stromatolites in carbonate rocks (Lime Bank, Kaan Fms) and vendobiontans in siliciclastic sediments (Kleinrivier, Van Staadens Fms)
Additional Comments
Gamtoos Gp is correlated with Cango Caves Group of W. Cape.
