What this report found

Prices for calcium and magnesium sulphate are recorded for South Africa and for world markets as at mid 2012, together with price trends and the groundwater chemistry that governs which salts a mine water stream will yield. The figures were assembled to support feasibility studies on a eutectic freeze crystallisation plant and an ion exchange plant.

What this report found

Micro-gravity, electrical resistivity and time domain electromagnetics located the boundary between old workings and virgin ground, but no ground technique tested could resolve individual bords and pillars at the depths typical of the Witbank and Highveld coalfields. Airborne thermal infrared surveys worked well as a low cost regional reconnaissance tool for shallow sinkholes, fires and possible pollution plumes.
