The Council for Geoscience (CGS) cordially invites you to attend the first IASPEI general assembly to be held on the African continent in Cape Town, South Africa!


The African plate exhibits three main types of seismicity, strongly related to the long and complex geological history dating back some 3,7 billion years:
  • Intraplate ・with its low level of seismic activity randomly distributed in space and time;

  • Continental rifting ・associated with the East African Rift System; and

  • Induced ・associated with large reservoirs and deep mining, such as the gold mining operations found in some areas on the Kaapvaal Craton. (The Kaapvaal Craton, particularly South Africa, boasts a geological record that is characterised by an almost complete geochronological succession of events that can be traced without major inter ruptions from the Archaean up to Recent times.)
IASPEI 2009 provides an ideal platform for geoscientists across the world to discuss these seismological topics.
