This table provides the bedrock geology data for each river catchment between Durban and Cape Town, South Africa which was required for the endmember mixing model discussed in the submitted manuscript. This data can be used for endmember mixing calculations or used for GIS mapping. 

We also provide the grain size data measured on a Sympatec HELOS KR laser diffraction particle sizer. This grain size was inputted into the grain size endmember mixing model Analysize package within MATLAB 2022b (from Paterson and Heslop, 2015).
