ProposalDescription: 

To prospect for Diamond (alluvial) with test pits to determine if gravel does have diamonds

Expanded_Motivation: 

Phase 1 concentrate on Test pits which will be made on a grid of 100 x 100 meters. It is envisages that 50 test pits will be excavated. The applicant will assess the samples taken during phase 1 and will Trenching (16) be made during Phase 2 in order to determine the grade of the Alluvial Diamonds that was found and if it is economical viable. In order to determine if the gravel does have diamonds the gravel needs to be taken out and tested, by putting it through the washing process. See Appendix 1(b) – Infrastructure Map for detail of what the site looks like pre-prospecting. Only a small portion of the land will be impacted upon at any given time and land use on the rest of the area can proceed normally (Phase 1 (50 test pits ( surface area: 3m x 2m = 6m² x 50 pits= total of 300m² or 0,03 ha) will be done over a period of 24 Months); (Phase 2: 16 Trenches (surface area will be 10m x 60m x 16 trenches = 0,96 ha total) will be done over 36 months. The grand total is 0,99 ha over 5 years. The prospecting focus area will be clearly demarcated after Phase 1 is completed, but will probably be over the whole of the application area. It is foreseen that the main prospecting area will most probably be over the already disturbed areas as indicated below in Figure 3. The area applied for is over the prospecting right application area of the entire 257.6188 hectares. It is envisaged that all impacts on the environment can be properly managed and mitigated and no high negative long-term impacts will take place
