ProposalDescription: 

The Applicant, Ilangabi Investments 12 (Pty) Ltd, intends to apply for Environmental Authorisation for prospecting without bulk sampling. The type of minerals to be prospected for include: (Cy) Clay (General); (Q) Silica Sand (General); (C) Coal The site is located portions 9 of the farm Vlakfontein 281 JR. The site is situated within the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality, approximately 6 km north of Nigel CBD. The total area is 64.2 Hectares in extent. The coordinates are as follows:

Expanded_Motivation: 

Prospecting work will initially entail a high-level desktop study and potential desktop resource evaluation. This will include a data search of any previous drilling, trenching, sampling activities, exploration activities, existing maps and relevant historical data. On successful completion of this desktop study, further possible drilling, trenching and resource estimations will be performed if the results warrant it. Prospecting Method: Planned non-invasive activities Desktop studies to be undertaken over the area would include studying of geological reports, prospecting data, plans/maps, aerial photographs, topography maps and any other related geological information about this area. Planned invasive activities Diamond core drilling is planned to be executed on a phase by phase basis. Planned borehole depths will be determined during the desktop study, but it is estimated that drilling activities will be done down to relatively shallow depths. Logging and sampling of the borehole core will be performed to evaluate the area. Trenching will involve the digging of excavation trenches down to approximately 3 metres below surface using graders and excavators. Mapping of the trench walls will then be performed. Pre-feasibility studies Geological modelling of gathered existing geological data and prospecting data will be performed, if the results warrant it.
