<br>
There are some data relating to specific mines in the Mine Water
Atlas [1] published by the Water Research Commission (WRC) The
data are from 2015, I think. <br>
<br>
The Mine Water Atlas data are (or were) freely available from
the WRC in Pretoria on a rather fancy USB card. The vector data
are all stored in an ESRI GDB file, which is just under a GB in
size. I extracted the point data relating to mines and saved it
as a geopackage file (see attached). In the attribute table
there is info about each mine (name, primary mineral being
targeted, status, etc).<br>
<br>
<b>Please acknowledge the WRC and the Mine Water Atlas project
team if you use these data</b>.<br>
<br>
Hope this is of some help.<br>
<br>

list members,
<br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a publicly available dataset showing the names
and locations of mines and quarries in Gauteng?
<br>
<br>
