The SAHRA Archaeology, Palaeontology and Meteorites (APM) Unit cannot endorse this proposed development and advises the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) to reject the application to prospect on portion 18, 19, remaining extent of portion 27 and portion 115 of the Farm 703, Kuruman District, Northern Cape Province (NC 30/5/1/1/2/12528 PR) as no HIA that complies with section 38(3) or section 38(8) of the NHRA as required by section 24(4)b(iii) of the NEMA has been completed as part of the EA application. SAHRA had requested that a field-based assessment be conducted, and this has not been completed.
