Abstract
As a result of the Kaapvaal Project we now have unprecedented coverage of the crustal thickness and details of the<br>seismic velocity variations in the tectosphere beneath southern Africa. By using these data and reasonable density<br>relationships we can calculate the contribution of each of these components to the overall gravity field of southern<br>Africa.
