“…These quartz‐cemented, cream‐, pink‐, light green to buff‐coloured siltstones are often sandy (very fine sand), and in parts, may be silty sandstones. The interpreted aeolian depositional environment has been associated with a strong palaeo‐wind regime, as indicated by the regional measurements of eastward‐dipping foresets in large‐scale cross‐bedded sandstones (Beukes, 1969, 1970; Bordy, 2008; Bordy et al, 2009; Bordy & Catuneanu, 2002; Bordy & Head, 2018; du Toit, 1904, 1918; Eriksson, 1981, 1986; Haughton, 1924; Head & Bordy, 2022; Holzförster, 2007; Johnson, 1976; Robinson et al, 1969; Stockley, 1947). In addition, the massive sandstones have been linked to dust deposition, mass movement processes related to high‐magnitude precipitation or the destruction of primary internal structures by water percolation (Beukes, 1969, 1970; Eriksson, 1986; Johnson, 1976).…”
