Heritage Cases

Prospecting Method: 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, prospecting activities, existing maps and relevant historical data. On successful completion of this desktop study, further possible, trenching and resource estimations will be performed if the results warrant it. Prospecting at the Klei Minerale site will include: • Phase 1: Non-Invasive Prospecting:- Desktop Study - Analysis of Existing Data GIS & analytical desktop studies Surveys. • Phase 2: Non-Invasive Prospecting: Multi-Spectral and Aerial Surveys. • Phase 3: Invasive Prospecting: Reconnaissance trenching, Sampling and Analysis. • Phase 4: Invasive Prospecting: Resource trenching, Sampling and Analysis, Resource Estimation and Pre-Feasibility Study. • Phase 5- Feasibility Studies and Mining Right Application: Since prospecting is temporary in nature no permanent structures will be constructed, negotiations and agreements may be made with the farm owners to use any existing infrastructure like access roads and other things like workshops. No accommodation is permitted on site. Description of 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. (These activities do not disturb the land where prospecting will take place e.g. aerial photography, desktop studies, aeromagnetic surveys, etc). Description of planned invasive activities Trenching will involve the digging of excavation trenches down to approximately 3 metres below surface using graders and excavators. The trenches will be approximately 750mm wide and approximately 3 metres long. Mapping of the trench walls will then be performed. (These activities result in land disturbances- without bulk sampling)
