Figure 2. The Chiweta Beds looking to the north. Black and white photo on right is taken from Dixey (1926). Bone-bearing channel and overbank deposits of the Chiweta Beds (B1) are in the foreground. Lake Malawi is in the background. The ridge to the left is composed of older Karoo Supergroup rocks, the valley is floored with lake sediments, which blanket a fault between the down dropped Chiweta Beds and the older Karoo. (See Figure 1 for location.)
