Anyone with Google Earth can. When Verneukpan was discovered, the formations were described as Nazca Lines and Crop Circles. Get your Google Earth up and look for yourself.
The circles are very new and relates to the area being used to set up land speed records, or testing fast cars.

These patterns are new, I have an aerial photo from 2009 that shows only the triangle shape. The spirals are about 60 metres across, the smaller ones about 20m. Also apart from the triangle, there are some older looking straight line marks all over. The yellow line thru the triangle shape is the only "road" that traverses the pan, so I would guess that this is some form of grading or preparation work for making a hard standing, maybe for the record attempt base camp."

The farmer that owns the land on which the spirals that you see is situated, took a tractor and used a plough to make deep spiralshape ditches with the intention of catching the water run-off. These ditches work very well and had a significant effect of improvement on the grazing on that farm. I wonder why, and does this work catching the water run-off? I mean running water would just flatten it all out again?
