New Kleinfontein Goldmine (Pty) Ltd (NKGM), a subsidiary of Gold One Group Ltd, is proposing to expand its existing Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) to allow for the continued processing of ore from surrounding Gold One operations at its surface processing plant once underground mining at NKGM ceases. Expansion will occur northwards (± 26 ha) and westwards (± 56 ha) from the existing TSF and will be developed to a final height of 32.5 m. NKGM is located on the Remaining Extent (RE) of the Farm Cloverfield 75 IR, near Springs, within the City of Ekurhuleni, Gauteng Province. NKGM is applying for an Environmental Authorisation (EA) for activities listed in terms of the National Environmental Management Act, No. 107 of 1998 (NEMA) Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Regulations (GNR982 of 2014, as amended) and the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, No 59 of 2008 (NEW:WA) Regulations (GNR921 of 2013, as amended).
