What this report found

Aircraft and ground based measurements at Kleinkopje Colliery showed spontaneous combustion to be a significant source of fine particles, with PM2.5 concentrations 91 per cent higher inside a combustion plume than outside it. Sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and carbon dioxide were also raised in plume, and benzene and toluene were detected. Average particle size was below one micron.

What this report found

A rating and ranking system was applied to South African coalfields and, separately, to the coal bearing countries elsewhere in the Southern African Development Community. The Waterberg ranked highest in South Africa and is the coalfield most worth detailed investigation as Witbank output declines. Botswana ranked highest among the other member states on contained resources and exploitation potential.
