dc.description Estuaries of the Cape en
dc.description.abstract Various charts and title deeds give the name of the river as the Zilvermyn rivier, Silver Mijn Stream or Silvermynrivier. The name Silvermine apparently originates from attempts in the 1680s to mine silver in the valley through which this river flows. The old silver-mine workings consisting of the mine, a tunnel near the mine and a shaft are all that remain of this venture (Burman, 1962). The Silvermine River emerges onto the northern end of Fish Hoek beach after running through an artificial channel underneath the road and railway bridges. This report provides the historical overview of the Silvermine River, its estuary, abiotic and biotic characteristics. en
