Wolemba waku South Africa, wasayansi, wofufuza, ndi wofufuza malo Michael Tellinger (wotchedwa "South African Indiana Jones") akuwonetsa chomwe chingakhale chimodzi mwa zigawo zochititsa chidwi kwambiri za umboni wakuti zimphona poyamba ankayendayenda Padziko Lapansi.
Akatswiri a miyala achita chidwi kwambiri ndi malo otalika mamita 4 mu granite. Ena amanena kuti ndi chilengedwe kukokoloka Mbali Komabe, n'zovuta kunena kwa nthawi.
Malinga ndi Prof. Pieter Wagener wa ku Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University ku Port Elizabeth SA, komanso wa PhD pa masamu ogwiritsira ntchito, "Pali kuthekera kwakukulu kwa anyamata ang'onoang'ono obiriwira omwe amabwera kuchokera mlengalenga ndikuyamwa ndi malirime awo kusiyana ndi kukokoloka kwachilengedwe." Ili ku South Africa, kufupi ndi malire a Swaziland, m'tauni ya Mpaluzi.
Chifukwa cha kumvetsetsa kwathu kwaposachedwa kwa mapangidwe a granite m'mbiri yonse ya Dziko Lapansi, akukhulupirira kuti ali pakati pa zaka 200 miliyoni mpaka 3 biliyoni. Chibwenzichi nthawi yomweyo chimayambitsa kusagwirizana, choncho zikhala bwino kuti tikhale ndi maganizo omasuka ndikuyang'ana zambiri.
Mphatso ya granite yodabwitsayi idapezeka mu 1912 ndi mlenje wina dzina lake Stoffel Coetzee pomwe amasaka kudera lakutali. Panthawiyo, derali linali labwinja la ku South Africa lotchedwa Eastern Transvaal, lomwe linali lodzaza ndi nyama monga antelope ndi mikango.
Ikadali m'malo omwewo pomwe idapezeka, ndipo mwayi woti ndi chinyengo chozunzidwa ndi wochepa kwambiri chifukwa cha malo ake akutali. Ngakhale panopo, ndizosowa kukumana.
Chinsinsi chowona ndi momwe chodabwitsachi chidachitikira ― ayi, tili ndi lingaliro lililonse ― koma zili pano ndipo sitingafune. Inde, ndi granite; ndi gawo lodziwika bwino la geological la South Africa, ndipo likuwonetsedwa pazithunzi zonse za geological; nchifukwa chake mapazi ali chinsinsi.
Itha kufotokozedwa ngati a "phenocrystic" granite OR coarse porphyritic granite yomwe idadutsa magawo angapo ozizira. Mapeto ake ndi kuphatikiza kochititsa chidwi kwa timbewu tating'ono ting'onoting'ono. Ichi ndichifukwa chake amalonda a granite akufuna kukumba malowa chifukwa miyala ya granite idzawoneka bwino “Wokongola” pamene opukutidwa.
Lero leri tshameke loko ku ri Mpuluzi Batholith (Granite) eka Afrika Dzonga ya Afrika Dzonga, naswona nhlayo leyi vuriweke yi vulaka matiko ya malembe ya 3.1 biliyoni. Ichi ndi mwambi wowona womwe umafunikira kufufuza kolondola kwasayansi.
