ProposalDescription: 

Mining Permit Application

Expanded_Motivation: 

The proposed mining permit area will be covering 5ha of Portion of the remaining extent of the farm Bankfontein 375 JS; Magisterial District of Nkangala. The mineral to be mined are Coal, Pseudocoal, Torbanite/Oil Shale. The method to be implemented is a very basic form of Open Cast Mining. Extraction of Coal will be facilitated through the use of an excavator and/or front-end loader. The site will be demarcated (Figure 1 2 on page ii of this report) for mining and will not compromise any infrastructure. An excavator and/or front-end loader will be used to strip a 30cm layer of topsoil, which will be stockpiled on a pre-determined area outside the watercourse along the banks for use in later rehabilitation. The excavator and/or front-end loader will excavate Coal from the pit to a depth of 1m to 3m and stockpile outside the watercourse. The Coal will be deposited onto the stockpile area within the permit site and loaded onto tip trucks by the front-end loader for transport off the site and for sale to the local market. The Coal will therefore not be processed on site
