Multi-client Aeromagnetic Data Merge & Interpretation – Witbank Coalfield

S.J. du Plessis

Merged magnetic coverage and dyke interpretation across most Witbank mining and exploration ground, delivered as maps and GIS files for geologists planning around intrusions.

What this report found

Government and industry aeromagnetic data over the Witbank Coalfield were merged into one set of maps and GIS compatible files, and roughly 1200 dyke traces were interpreted from them. Purchase of a 200 m line spacing government survey removed the need for infill flying. One participating company valued advance knowledge of a single underground dyke at about R15 million.

Treatment of Sulphate Rich Effluents with the Combined Electrolytic/Biological Process

2003

Laboratory work on producing hydrogen by electrolysis as the energy source for sulphate reducing bacteria, aimed at cutting the running cost of treating sulphate rich mine water.

What this report foundHydrogen for biological sulphate removal can be generated on site by electrolysis more cheaply than it can be bought.

What this report found

Hydrogen for biological sulphate removal can be generated on site by electrolysis more cheaply than it can be bought. Stainless steel electrodes in acid mine drainage gave hydrogen at about a third of the bought in price while oxidising ferrous iron to ferric, which helps downstream treatment. Iron and zinc electrodes dissolved too quickly to be viable.
