The promoter, who is a small scale miner with a long history of mining semi-precious stones (tourmaline) in the Karibib Districts had pegged and registered three mining claims with MME. The Mining Claims were registered for semi-precious stones and an ECC has been granted (attached to the bid for easy reference). Given high demand for industrial minerals (lithium, tin and tantalite) and a toll-free processing plant planned to be constructed in the Karibib District, the promoter would like the Mining Commissioner to include industrial minerals included on the mining claim certificate.

The applicant intends to explore the project area through non-invasive and invasive methods to determine if viable mineral deposits exist. It is foreseen that the exploration will include field mapping, surveying, literature review (non-invasive), drilling (invasive), trenching (invasive), Sampling, Analysis, Geological Modelling and Resource Estimation (non-invasive) over a period of an initial period of 3 years. The invasive activities would comprise digging of trenches and drilling of surface boreholes spaced from each other.

Urbanization and its impact on quality of life (or lack thereof) are two of the biggest challenges we face globally. Increasing urbanization has severe economic and social consequences for our society. Among them are overpopulation, pollution, inadequate infrastructure and overuse of natural resources, as well as rising property values and living costs. Urban planning has failed to accommodate a large influx of people, resulting in sprawling communities within the urban edge. In the end, large residential neighbourhoods with no sense of place and a low quality of life are the result.
