ProposalDescription: 

Proposed exhumation and relocation of at least 18 graves that will be affected by the development of the Exxaro Thabametsi Coal Mine on the farms RE of Vaalpensloop 313 LQ, Van der Waltspan 310 and Jackalsvley 309 LQ, near Lephalale, Limpopo Province

Expanded_Motivation: 

The first phase of the Thabametsi Project intends to mine coal via open pit and underground mining methods for supply to a proposed Independent Power Producer (IPP) coal-fired power station, which will be located north of the proposed project area. During the development phase of the proposed mine, coal will be trucked to the Grootegeluk Coal Mine. Further expansion of the proposed Thabametsi Coal Mine will follow the rail capacity expansions and raw water supply additions (MCWAP2) to the area. Development will include an open pit and supporting infrastructure. This development will negatively impact on graves located in the project area.
