Reasons for the deficit• Loss of existing projects
– Eskom – Project was suspended
– Small-scale mining – Project was suspended
• Global Economic Downturn • No new geological related projects from the
World Bank and other funders
• Currency strengthening – It is always a challenge when working abroad

Industrial Minerals• Updating industrial mineral maps and data
(limestone, granites, clay etc). These will be critical iro contribution to the creation of jobs. Focus areas are: – Eastern Cape ; Mpumalanga; Western Cape– Northern Cape; Kwazulu-Natal
• Rare Earth Metals– Collaborative research project with the
Japanese on rare earth metals• Identification of their location and
processing techniques

Priority Areas
WesternBasin Central Basin
EasternBasin
• Lack of adequate measures to manage and control the problems• Urgency of intervention before problems become more critical• Proximity to densely populated areas
AMD is reported in several mining areas:
Witwatersrand Gold FieldsMpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal
Coal FieldsNorthern Cape Copper Mines
AMD decanting to surface (Impacting on Cradle of Humankind). Urgent intervention required
Pumping stopped Oct. 2008. Water level now rising – currently about 480m below surface.Immediate intervention to ensure pumps installed by March 2012
Pumping stopped 31/01/2011. Water level now rising from around 700m below surface

Key Recommendations1. Prevent decanting by pumping2. Implement ingress control measures to reduce the rate of
flooding and the eventual decant/pumping volume and costs3. Water quality management
– Neutralisation and metal removal in the short-term– Removal of salt loads from river systems to be considered
in the medium- to long-term (direct use or desalination to potable quality)
4. Improve monitoring and undertake research to inform better decision making
5. Manage and monitor other AMD sources within the Witwatersrand e.g. diffuse sources such as slimes dams
6. Investigate the implementation of An Environmental Levy

Critical Challenges
• Long-term financial sustainability of the CGS– The need to increase revenue (both state grant and commercial)
• Implementation of the amended Geoscience Act
• Continued training of previously disadvantaged scientists
• Retention of skilled senior scientists
• Ageing scientific infrastructure
• Playing a significant role in attracting investment in the minerals exploration/prospecting sector

Key Actions to Address the Challenges
• Continue to implement short-term measures which have turned around the financial situation of the organisation – these include costs cutting measures
• The board and management will investigate various options iro positioning and restructuring the organisation
• The organisation will engage the National Treasury and the DMR on future funding of the organisation, especially with regards to projects that will contribute towards job creation – through the MTEF process
