Directions: 

This site is located 20 m from the proposed haul road with GPS coordinates of: -24.922952; 30.139413.

SiteComments: 

The project is located on the farm De Grooteboom 373 KT, within the Greater Tubatse Local Municipality (GTLM), Limpopo Province.A mine, haul road, power line, Pollution Control Dam (PCD) and other associated infrastructure are proposed for the DGP. The proposed power line does not form part of this MPRDA application, and should it be considered, a separate application will be applied for. 

On this site a Communal activity area was located on a rocky outcrop approximately 50 m from a non-perennial stream. The activity area may have been the location of a washing or tanning area. Additionally, it may have been preliminary grinding area; however the areas are not very pronounced suggesting a short occupation. The site consists of three patches where an activity had occurred. No other features or archaeological remains or deposit were identified nearby. This site is located 20 m from the proposed haul road.
