ProposalDescription: 

Adomamanzi Pty (Ltd) (Adomamanzi) has commenced with a process to apply for prospecting rights over a total area of approximately 230 hectares in the Northern Cape, South Africa. The prospecting application is located approximately 54 kilometres west of Garies, and 122 kilometres southwest of Komaggas, within the Kamiesberg Local Municipality which falls under the Namaqua District Municipality. Adomamanzi is investigating and exploring the feasibility of a diamond mine and bulk sampling across an area that covers portions of land in the Northern Cape. Prospecting activities will be undertaken over a period of 60 months and the application is for both invasive and non-invasive methods.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The proposed site for prospecting is situated within the Namaqua District Municipality, within the jurisdiction of the Kamiesberg Local Municipality (see Table). Prospecting for diamonds (alluvial) is proposed from the area which extends from the western boundary of Farm Eiland Punt Noord No. 549 to the eastern border of Concession Area 9A and will entail activities in the sea. The activities will take place on coastal public property and within the admiralty reserve and sea. The proposed site extent is approximately 230 hectares. Prospecting activities will be undertaken over a period of 60 months and the application is for both invasive and non-invasive methods. Invasive methods are activities that result in land disturbances and comprise of trenching/bulk sampling, marine based mining (using divers and suction pumps). Non-invasive methods are methods that do not cause disturbances to the land and include desktop research and include detailed geophysical surveys. Planned prospecting is proposed to be undertaken in three phases: • Phase I: Literature Study and Marine mining phase; • Phase II: Land based mining (Admiralty Strip); • Phase III: Resource Estimation
