Recharge in Rehabilitated Opencast Collieries
2019
Groundwater levels and pumping records from five rehabilitated opencast pits at South African collieries, for hydrogeologists and closure planners estimating post-mining water balances.
What this report foundRecharge factors of 23.5 per cent and 12.9 per cent were calculated at the two rehabilitated pits with complete data.
R1500,00
Recharge factors of 23.5 per cent and 12.9 per cent were calculated at the two rehabilitated pits with complete data. The higher value reflected surface drainage towards the pit centre and eroded topsoil; the lower one, a deep pit floor with well compacted spoil and intact cover. The rates are site specific and no generic formula could be derived.

R1500,00
Existing thermal imagery of the Witbank coalfield was traced to its holders and assessed for format, quality, resolution and coverage, then brought into one geographic information system with supporting metadata. Satellite thermal bands give a regional picture only; detailed mapping of coal fires or acid drainage discharge needs high resolution aerial surveys.
