Surface runoff is regulated by several large dams, notably the Bronkhorstspruit, Witbank and Middelburg dams (Figure 2) and, further downstream, the Loskop Dam (Basson et al., 1997). As mining and other industries in the region expand, water demand is
V.4.2 Water quality issues Coal mining is a major potential source of diffuse water pollution. Sulphate is a good indicator of salinity arising from this form of pollution. Approximately 70-80 per cent of the sulphate load in the Witbank Dam catchment emanates from diffuse sources and can be attributed to coal mining.
Coal mining has the potential to significantly disrupt downstream flow regimes and in the most severe cases can lead to the permanent loss of ephemeral, intermittent and perennial headwater
2010-3-1 Environmental issues arise at every stage of the proc- ess. This paper will discuss environmental issues due to coal mining. In fact, environmental problems from coal mining have been studied since coal mining be- came industrialized. Nevertheless, environmental issues from coal mining have become important con- cerns only since the 1970’s.

Emalahleni (meaning place of coal), formerly known as Witbank, is located on the Highveld of the Mpumalanga Province, South Africa. As far back as the 18 th century, coal mining activities have been in operation in this area and the largest number of South Africa’s coal fields are

The project is executed and funded by a Joint Venture between Anglo Coal and BHP Billiton’s Ingwe Collieries. These two companies play a dominant
The Witbank Coalfield is nearing depletion and additional sources for coal supply must soon be identified if the coal industry is to continue into the 21st century. The Waterberg Coalfield is a likely replacement of the Witbank Coalfield, simply because it has the potential to contain the vast majority of the country’s remaining in situ
In South Witbank mine the underground mining ended in 1975 and all activities in 1991 (period of inactivity between 1975-1989). The coal mines serve as large reservoirs of surface and underground water. (Mey et al. 2008, Hutton et al. 2009, Bhagwan 2012, WCA 2014) Need for water reclamation.

The current turbulence in the mining industry in South Africa has its roots in several different factors. First, the fall in global demand for platinum and other minerals due to recession; second, the consequences of the Marikana disaster in destabilising labour relations; and third, the structural character of our mining industry. A great deal has been written about the first two factors, so
2013-12-12 Coal mining, especially surface mining, causes temporary disturbance to huge areas of land. This leads to numerous environmental concerns which include coal dust, soil erosion, and destruction of biodiversity due to water, air and noise pollution. Steps have been taken to curtail these impacts by implementing pollution-control measures

2021-9-1 Coal mining in South Africa is centred on the Highveld, with roughly 60% of the country’s deposits located in eMalahleni (Witbank) and surrounding areas. Two of the biggest coal mining projects in South Africa are surface mining operations at the Mafube Colliery

2008-6-17 Surface and groundwater pollution is the most common environmental issue coal mines must deal with (van Zyl, 2002). This is exemplified in the upper reaches of the Olifants Water Management Area (Figures 1 and 2), where extensive coal mining has resulted in
2 天前 Although the United States has the vast coal resource described in the previous chapter, perhaps as much as 4 trillion tons, the key issue for policy makers is the amount of coal that is economically recoverable.This is not a fixed quantity, but depends on the geological resource, the market price, and the cost of mining. The particular characteristics of the coal mining

Chemical, Air & Dust Pollution: Underground mining allows coal companies to dig for coal deeper into the ground. The problem is that huge amounts of earth and rock are brought up from the bowels of the earth. These mining wastes can become toxic when they are exposed to air and water. Examples of toxins are mercury, arsenic, fluorine and selenium.
2021-9-14 The Mining Program attempts to identify issues emerging in the next 5 to 10 years and has identified production demands, workforce issues, and mining practices as areas of future concern. The committee foresees changes in the mining industry that can be
Mining is done with the goal to obtain materials which cannot be obtained at the surface and can also not be created artificially in an economically-senseful way. The types, causes, effects of mining and solutions to the problem are presented below.
