Development Type: 

ProposalDescription: 

The Tygerkloof Mine includes an open quarry with overburden adjacent to the quarry, as well as a haul road to transport ore from the quarry to the existing RAM.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The quarry will be approximately 115.9ha. The overburden will cover and area of approximately 142.2ha. The already existing haul road will be extended at a width of approximately 12m, and a length of 3.5km, adjacent to the quarry. Portion 5 of the farm Tygerkloof 354 KQ is approximately 594ha, therefore 44% of the total area will be disturbed for mining activities. The proposed amendment of the mining method is to store all overburden adjacent to the quarry, in the already approved overburden footprint. The quarry will be filled with coarse and fine tailings. The mining method and EMP is further amended to change the sequence of placement of overburden and topsoil. The approved footprints for overburden and topsoil stockpile will still be used. This is an amendment of an already approved EMP, therefore, there are no alternatives. The rehabilitation plan has been updated to indicated that the quarry will be filled with coarse and fine tailings. The overburden will be sloped at end of life of mine.
