| Introduction | It all began with a fascination with dinosaurs at a young age and names like Stegosaurus and Dimetrodon featured large in his vocabulary. Ultimately this led to a degree in geology from the University of Natal, an honours degree from Rhodes University and a Masters degree from the University of Leeds in England. All these qualifications have taken him around portions of Europe, the Middle East and Africa, working on a variety of projects ranging from tunnels in the Italian Dolomites to the big dams in Lesotho. Currently he is the director of GeoZone GeoServices, a firm of consulting geologists and geotechnical engineers and finds himself travelling throughout KwaZulu-Natal and occasionally elsewhere. He is often astonished how little people know about their physical world, particularly the Earth on which they walk, so if you are in the near vicinity when some interesting landscape heaves itself above the horizon or some rock is found in the path, prepare yourself for a discourse on origins and the significance thereof.
