Assessing the Ecosystem Processes of Ecological Infrastructure on Post-coal Mined Land
2017
Physical, chemical and biological sampling at two points on each of four Mpumalanga watercourses, with wetland functionality assessment and mitigation recommendations, for mine environmental and water managers.

Watercourses on post mined land near Kriel showed deterioration in manganese, calcium, magnesium, sodium, total dissolved salts and sulphate, while other parameters stayed within drinking water standards. Aquatic invertebrate communities had suffered significant losses and two sites were classified as eutrophic. The water is not fit for human consumption or recreation, and a minimum 32 m buffer from wetland boundaries is recommended after earthworks.
A diatom based index for pans impacted by acid mine drainage
2021
Wet and dry season sampling of epiphytic diatoms from reed, salt and grass pans on the Mpumalanga Highveld, validating a biomonitoring index for mine affected depressional wetlands.
What this report foundLevel of acid mine drainage disturbance explained more of the variation in diatom communities than any other factor, with pan type second and season not...

Level of acid mine drainage disturbance explained more of the variation in diatom communities than any other factor, with pan type second and season not significant. Sulphate and calcium concentrations and sulphate to chloride ratios were higher in disturbed pans of every type. Pan type specific indices were tested against established riverine indices.
