The Matchless Amphibolite Belt is a conspicuous narrow northeast-southwest trending sequence consisting of amphibolite, chlorite-amphibole schist, talc schist and metagabbro which extends over a distance of 350km in the Southern Tectonostratigraphic Zone of the Damara Orogen. The Matchless Belt represents a sequence of metamorphosed tholeiitic basalts, which are the product of submarine volcanism. Stratigraphically the Matchless Amphibolite Member occurs within the Kuiseb Formation (Khomas Subgroup) of the Damara Sequence, which is a metapelitic sequence of biotite schists, with subordinate calcsilicate rocks and carbonaceous schists.The Matchless deposit comprises six echelon shoots namely the Eastern Prospect, East Shoot, West Shoot, River Shoot, Western Prospect and Western Extension, extending over a strike length of 2.5km from the east to the west in that order (Fig.3.3.1_1). The East Shoot, West Shoot and River Shoot form the old Matchless Mine. The mineralisation occurs in amphibolites and quartz-sericite schist lying between the Matchless Amphibolite and the Footwall Amphibolite, dipping at 30o , 350o towards the north and plunges to the northwest. The mineralised zones are distinct pyrite chalcopyrite occurring in a quartz mica schist. A slight angular discordance between the mineralised zone and the Matchless Amphibolite was mapped on outcrop. The mineralisation is strata-bound and is of a massive sulphide type containing mainly pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and minor sphalerite, gold and silver.
