(University of Namibia, 2020)A number of environmental studies previously conducted in the Tsumeb Mining district analysed total metal concentrations in soils and vegetation; with results showing high concentrations of heavy metals such as arsenic, ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2017)This research study focused on the previously unknown uranium mineralisation hosted in garnet and magnetite bearing sheeted leucogranites (SLG's) I alaskites at Namibplaas. The various SLG's were distinguished and characterised ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2019)Knowledge of groundwater age / residence time in Okongo perched aquifer is important in understanding key issues in the evolution of groundwater, recharge rates, recharge mechanisms, resource renewability, flow rate and ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2019)The Owambo Basin is one of Namibia’s two main onshore basins and is a significant target area for hydrocarbon exploration. Although exploration activities in the Owambo Basin commenced in the 1950s spanning more than 58 ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2018)Volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Sinclair Supergroup occur in the Konkiep Terrane of Southern Namibia. Three volcanic and sedimentary cycles are recognised. The Barby Formation belongs to the second cycle which ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2019)Namibia has been known as water scarce, attributing mostly to its geographic location and primarily because of the limited surface water as well as the high potential evaporation rates beyond 2000 mm/year. Groundwater ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2017)This study explored the impact of small-scale mining activities on the environment in two regions in Namibia: Erongo (examples: Uis, Neu Schwaben, Xoboxobos) and Omaheke (example: Otjinene). Limited research is done on the ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2018)The Walvis Basin is situated in the eastern Atlantic margin south of the Walvis Ridge offshore Namibia. The Basin is underexplored with only 8 exploration wells drilled in the basin to date. The basin and the entire offshore ...

(University of Namibia, 2018)The United Nation predicted that by 2025, 1.8 billion people will be living in countries with absolute water scarcity and two-thirds of the world population could be under stress condition. In semi-arid regions, most ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2017)An understanding of the water used by vegetation in water limited environment is critical to fully understand water relations of natural areas with vegetation. Such information can be integrated in water management plans ...
-
(University of Namibia, 2014)The Orange Basin is located on the South-west African continental margin adjacent to the boundary between South Africa and Namibia. The interpretation of the existing 2D seismic and well data using Petrel software provided ...

Characterization of quartz in some potential high purity quartz deposits in the Damara orogenic belt (University of Namibia, 2016)This research project was aimed at characterizing quartz from selected potential High Purity Quartz (HPQ) deposits in terms of trace element associations, associated trace element concentrations, and growth zones. Six ...
-
(2014)The Naukluft Mountains area is also referred to as the Naukluft Nappe Complex (NNC), that consist of northwest dipping carbonates and sandstones aged 750 Ma and form part of the Damara Super Group that has been thrust over ...
