ProposalDescription: 

Prospecting activities will comprise of both non-invasive and invasive methods and may include: desktop and literature studies, geophysical surveys, field surveys and drilling. The Prospecting Right process is expected to be undertaken over a period of 3 years with the potential for renewal depending on results and studies undertaken.

Expanded_Motivation: 

Presently, about 77% of our country's primary energy needs are provided by coal. This is unlikely to change significantly in the next decade, due to the relative lack of suitable alternatives to coal as an energy source. This sector still has potential to contribute significantly to the local economy. Although prospecting activities will not benefit the surrounding communities or create employment. It will confirm the availability of minerals and the feasibility for future mining prospects. With an unemployment rate of more than 45%, creating employment opportunities and improving social infrastructure are key goals that the Municipality has set out to achieve. The establishment of any future mine would provide job opportunities for unskilled, and potentially skilled, labour from the surrounding areas.
