Abstract:
The environment is a dynamic and complex interrelated system which is transboundary. The mining sector in South Africa is one of the key economic sectors and employs a huge number of South Africans, yet there is a clear residual environmental impact from mining activities. The sector is the sixth contributor to the total gross domestic product (GDP).
This paper attempts to provide a policy framework for sustainable mining activities in South Africa.
