MC Mining gets green light for Vele colliery By Isabel Venter

Good news for Limpopo residents is that, after an absence of about five years, a passenger train service will soon be introduced between Johannesburg and Musina. Under the theme To Bring People Together, Shosholoza Meyl announced that they would re-introduced the Johannesburg-Musina-Johannesburg train. The official launch will take place at the end of February at the historic railway station in Louis Trichardt. As part of the re-introduction of the service, commuters can look forward to special introductory offers, starting from R100 per person travelling one-way between Musina and Johannesburg. PRASA was to issue a full press release in this regard this week, but at the time of our going to press, they had yet to officially issue the release. Pictured during a visit by Shosholoza Meyls’ communications and marketing department to Louis Trichardt last week are, in front from left to right, Leonard Potgieter, Nokuzola Mancoba, Daisy Daniel and Ben Makinita. At the back is Ronel Vermaak, customer interface manager Limpopo.

Public resist proposed amendments (Contd from P1) The evaporation from such a dam could be estimated at about 20% per annum. It can, of course rain, but the Nzhelele area is prone to long spells of drought. The population growth in the area has also put a further strain on the limited water resources. Baobab expressed the hope to make up for their water shortfall by means of a deal that CoAL had struck (at the time) with a collective of nine farmers during 2012 to purchase 8% of the water rights that they hold within the

Nzhelele irrigation scheme. One of these farmers who had initially shared in this deal, Mr Peter Nicholson, indicated that this deal had been struck with CoAL and that it has since lapsed as no new contract or deal was made with either MC or Baobab. “South Africa has changed for ever. The laws of this country have changed … you can bring all the licences you want, but if this community does not want you here, you will not mine here … look what happened at Marikana … you will not push this through,” said Nicholson when

MC Mining, previously known as CoaL of Africa Limited, has received all the necessary approvals to restart the Vele colliery. Vele’s original integrated-water-use licence (IWUL) was granted in March 2011 for a period of five years. Later, the company decided to apply for an amendment as a result of planned modifications to Vele’s coal-processing plant. Amendments were required to obtain approval relating to a diversion of a non-perennial stream and associated infrastructural activities. The Department of Water and Sanitation granted the licence on Tuesday. “We welcome this decision and the securing of all the regulatory authorisations for the colliery, said MC Mining CEO David Brown on Tuesday. He is confident that the department’s decision is a

confirmation of the government’s support of MC Mining’s co-existence model. Brown explained that the co-existence model facilitates the co-existence of mining, agriculture and heritage land uses in line with the historic biodiversity offset agreement between the Department of Environmental Affairs, South African National Parks and MC Mining. Mining at Vele is not expected to start immediately. According to MC Mining, the final decision on whether to proceed with the plant modifications at Vele will first be placed before the company’s board for consideration. This will include a re-evaluation of all options available to the company, including an assessment of long-term coal pricing, as well as logistic consideration. “The board will evaluate all options available, which will be communicated at the appropriate time,” said Brown.

Man slagoffer van ‘n nuwe slenter Deur Isabel Venter

Kriminele in Louis Trichardt raak by die dag al hoe meer geslepe, en sal enige plan maak om eerlike mense te ontneem van hul swaar-verdiende in komste. Diewe maak deesdae nie net meer gebruik van ‘n afstandbeheer om by niksvermoedende motoreienaars se voertuie in te kom nie. In die jongste voorval is mnr.

Comments can be sent to the mine’s Public Participation Office at Tel 012 543 9093 or by writing an email to makhado. project@gmail.com.

Volgens Agri SA dui die verslag aan dat besmetting in vyf distrikte in Limpopo, dele van Mpumalanga asook in die OosKaap aangemeld is. In antwoord hierop het die Departement van Landbou, Bosbou en Visserye (DAFF) versoek dat boere en landbou-organisasies hul

toegeslaan het toe hy aankope gedoen het by Premjee & Sons. Die skelms het na bewering die linker agterwiel van sy voertuig halfpad afgeblaas. Dit het Fourie glo geforseer om by Spar stil te hou. Volgens die woordvoerder van die Makhado Polisie het ‘n persoon vir Fourie kom hulp aanbied en vir hom ‘n pomp geleen. Dit was een van die soort pompe wat deur ‘n voertuig se sigaretlaaier werk. Die dief of diewe het toegeslaan terwyl Fourie gekniel het by die wiel, en sy sak gegryp wat hy voor tussen die twee sit plekke neergesit het. Daar word vermoed dat die verdagtes die sak

gegryp het omdat hulle gedink het dat daar dalk baie kontant in was. Binne-in die sak was egter Fourie se pistool en sy beursie, met ‘n klein hoeveelheid kontant daarin. Ongelukkig het die hele voorval net-net buite die gesigsveld van die sekuriteitskameras gebeur, en kon daar nie gesien word hoeveel verdagtes toegeslaan het op Fourie nie. Die plaaslike polisiewoord voerder, konst. Irene Radzilane, het kort ná die voorval bevestig dat ‘n saak van diefstal uit ‘n motor geopen is vir verdere ondersoek. Sy het ook gesê dat ‘n saak van die nalatige verlies van ‘n vuurwapen teen Fourie geopen is.

Agri SA wil graag boere daarop attent maak dat die aanwending van chemikalieë in konsultasie met die betrokke verteenwoordigers moet geskied,” het Agri SA in ‘n persverklaring gesê.

Alhoewel hierdie wurm meestal mielieplante aanval, kom dit ook soms voor in katoen, koring, sorghum, sojabone, aartappels en grondbone. “Om dié rede is dit belangrik om te let op skade aan hierdie gewasse en die teenwoordigheid van die indringer-spesies,” het Agri SA gesê. Dan Kriek, president van Agri SA, het Graan SA en ander rolspelers wat die situasie namens die bedryf moniteer bedank. (Sien meegaande berig hieroor op p. 11)

CoAL of Africa Limited (now MC Mining) visited the site of their Makhado mine in 2013, shortly after signing a contract with farmers to buy their surplus water from the Nzhelele Dam scheme. During the visit, they flew over the area by helicopter to investigate the course of the different rivers. In the photo, one of the prospecting cuts can be seen, which was dug not far from the Mudemeli community.

Nuwe woef vir tannie Nelia ná slang Goofy eet Deur Isabel Venter

Danksy ‘n spanpoging van ‘n plaaslike groep vrywillige slangvangers het die hartseer verhaal van mev. Nelia Scheepers se woef Goofy ‘n gelukkige einde gehad. Die groep het saamgespan en vir Nelia, wat op ‘n plot woon uit op die Vivo-pad buite Louis Trichardt, ‘n nuwe brakkie gekry, wat hulle Saterdag aan haar oorhandig het. ‘n Yslike luislang van meer as drie meter het sowat twee weke gelede vir Goofy ingesluk, slegs ‘n paar meter weg van Nelia waar sy geslaap het. Sy het voor die televisie aan die slaap geraak, toe sy rondom middernag wakker word van die honde se benoude geblaf. Die luislang het toe reeds vir Goofy doodgedruk en ingesluk. Nelia het vir Frikkie Venter, een van die vrywil-

lige slangvangers, in die hande gekry en hy het die luislang gaan vang. Die luislang is later op ‘n plek van veiligheid vrygelaat. Die groepie het amper dadelik aan die werk gespring om ‘n nuwe hondjie geborg te kry vir Nelia. Dit het wel ‘n bietjie rondvra geverg, maar hulle het die oulikste Beagle/Jack Russel-kruising gekry wat deur mev. Susan van Baalen van Louis Trichardt geborg is. Die nuwe woef, wat later Jessica gedoop is, het sommer dadelik die stert geswaai toe sy haar nuwe eienaar ontmoet het. Lede van die groepie het die afgelope Saterdag vir Jessica oorhandig aan Nelia. Die groepie het elke lid bedank wat gehelp het om die skenking moontlik te maak en in besonder vir Susan vir die hondjie, Diana Straube en Blouberg Dierekliniek op Louis Trichardt wat Jessica Bo: Lede van die plaaslike groep van vrywillige se eerste inspuiting geborg het. slangvangers afgeneem Saterdag saam met mev.

Oom Dirk oorgeplaas na gewone saal Deur Andries van Zyl

Friends and family were saddened by the sudden passing away of the 19-year-old Noel Rodrigues Culverwell of Louis Trichardt. He passed away on Friday, 2 February, after falling sick earlier in the week. The cause of Noel’s death has yet to be determined. Noel was born on 5 June 1998 in Louis Trichardt. He completed his school career as a student of the Louis Trichardt Primary and High School. After he matriculated, Noel relocated to Pretoria where he managed his own business for a time. Noel moved back to Louis Trichardt at the beginning of the year. “Noel, our beloved son, brother, nephew and friend - thank you for your love and unselfishness … we will miss you forever. Your departure left a big gap in our lives. We will miss your smile, and hugs…” said his family. Noel was buried during a burial service that was held at the Louis Trichardt Catholic Church on 3 February. Photo supplied.

Oom Dirk is Vrydag, 9 Februarie, na ‘n gewone saal in die hospitaal oorgeskuif. “Hy sal egter nog ‘n geruime tyd in die hospitaal moet bly. Wat bietjie teen hom tel is sy ouderdom. Jy weet, hy het groot beserings opgedoen,” het sy seun, Dirk junior, Dinsdag aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. Tog is oom Dirk se familie verheug oor sy goeie herstel sover. “In stadiums het dit maar moeilik gegaan ... nou Sondag het hy drie roomyse geëet,” het Dirk junior met ‘n glimlag gesê. Intussen haal hulle oom Dirk elke dag uit die bed om hom bietjie met ‘n rolstoel rond te stoot. Oom Dirk se beserings tydens die ongeluk het ingesluit ‘n sleg gebreekte arm, ‘n regterbeen wat op twee plekke gebreek is, ‘n vergruisde knieskyf, ‘n gekraakte bekkenbeen en ‘n geperforeerde buik. Medici kon intussen deur verskeie operasies daarin slaag om meeste van die skade te herstel. In ‘n stadium het dit so sleg met oom Dirk gegaan vanweë sy verswakte toestand en die operasies dat hy aan ‘n ventilator gekoppel moes word om hom te help asemhaal. “Dit is ‘n absolute wonderwerk dat hy so goed herstel,” het Dirk junior gesê. Hy het weereens almal bedank Die 79-jarige oom Dirk wat deurlopend vir die du Preez sterk goed familie gebid het en aan ná sy ernstige on geluk op 19 Januarie steeds bid. “My pa het egter nog en is verlede Vrydag, ‘n entjie om te gaan. presies drie weke na Dit sal heel moontlik sy ongeluk, vanuit die fisioterapie insluit om intensiewe eenheid van hom te help om weer die Netcare Hospitaal normaal te funksioneer,” na ‘n gewone saal oor geplaas.

Vragmotors wat strate versper toenemend ‘n groot frustrasie Deur Andries van Zyl

Bo en onder: Groot vragmotors wat ten minste drie keer per week die hoof toegangsroete na Eltivillas versper deur in die pad te stop veroorsaak toenemende frustrasie vir inwoners van dié woongebied. Volgens die Makhado Munisipaliteit was hulle nie bewus van die probleem nie, maar hulle sê hulle gaan nou teen oortreders optree. Foto’s verskaf.

Dit word toenemend moeiliker vir Louis Trichardt motoriste om die dorp se strate te navigeer vanweë mede-padgebruikers wat bloot die verkeersreëls ignoreer. Van die groot sondebokke is vragmo torbestuurders wat doodeenvoudig in die loopvlak parkeer om goedere by sakeondernemings op en af te laai. Die Zoutpansberger het al verskeie kere hier oor gerapporteer met ‘n paar plaaslike ondernemings wat hulle herhaaldelik hieraan skuldig maak. Dit gesê, moet daar in ag geneem word dat vragmotorbestuur ders nie altyd ‘n ander keuse het as om in die middel van die pad te parkeer nie, aangesien talle sakeondernemings nie voorsiening maak vir ‘n area waar goedere open afgelaai kan word nie. Die afgelope tyd het die probleem van swaar vragmotors wat die dorp se strate toe parkeer in intensiteit toegeneem in Eltivillas, veral in Main Street, die hoof toegangsroete na die woongebied in Eltivillas. ‘n Inwoner van die woongebied het onlangs telkens foto’s geneem van vragmotors wat sommer teen die verkeer op hul vragmotors in die pad parkeer (sien meegaande foto’s).

“Ek wil graag weet of dit toelaatbaar is? Dit gebeur ten minste drie keer per week, ‘n ongeluk wat wag om te gebeur en die verkeersafdeling doen niks nie. Ek verstaan dat goedere open afgelaai moet word, maar die eienaars van die ondernemings moes daarvoor voorsiening gemaak het,” het die leser gesê. Die Zoutpansberger wou by munisipale woordvoerder mnr. Louis Bobodi weet of hulle bewus is van die probleem. Die navraag kom in ‘n tyd waar plaaslike verkeersbeamptes toenemend sigbaar is waar hulle spesifiek net kyk vir veilig heidsgordels en rybewyse. Bobodi het Dinsdag gesê dat hulle nie bewus is van die probleem nie. “ …maar ons gaan nou dit aanspreek … en ons gaan die wet toepas ten opsigte van oortreders,” het Bobodi gesê. Intussen lyk dit of die munisipaliteit absoluut niks gaan doen om stoptekens te vervang wat by vele besige straatkrui sings vermis geraak het vanweë skade of diefstal nie. Een van hierdie kruisings is die besige Boabab- en Elandstraatkruising. Daagliks mis voertuie mekaar rakelings by die kruising, aangesien daar geen stoptekens meer is nie en die padmerke feitlik nie meer sigbaar is nie. Hierdie situasie duur al vir etlike maande en is persoonlik al

deur die koerant aan die munisipaliteit gerapporteer, met geen resultate nie. Die probleem is nie soseer by mense wat in die omgewing bly en weet dat hulle, wanneer hulle in Boababstraat ry, by die kruising moet stop of versigtig moet wees nie. Die kruising veroorsaak wel ‘n probleem vir besoekers wat nie weet dat daar ‘n stopstraat is nie. Dit is presies wat verlede Vrydagmiddag tot ‘n botsing by die kruising gelei het. ‘n Nuwe intrekker en besoeker uit die dorp het met mekaar in die kruising gebots, omdat hulle nie geweet het daar is ‘n stopstraat nie. Derduisende rande se skade is aan die voertuie aangerig, maar gelukkig is niemand ernstig beseer nie. Foto’s van die ongeluk en die probleem van die vermiste stoptekens is kort ná die ongeluk weer onder die plaaslike verkeers afdeling se aandag gebring. (Die Zoutpansberger wil graag ‘n opname maak van kruisings waarvan stoptekens verwyder of vermis geraak het. Stuur asseblief die inligting na Andries by news@zoutnet.co.za of stuur vir hom ‘n WhatsApp na 082 603 2419. Ons sal graag ook van plaaslike wetgeleerdes wil hoor oor ‘n motoris se regte wanneer hy in ‘n ongeluk betrokke is waar die munisipaliteit versuim het om stoptekens aan te bring of te vervang).

Daagliks mis voertuie mekaar rakelings by die besige Boabab- en Elandstraatkruising, aangesien daar geen stoptekens meer is nie en die padmerke feitlik nie meer sigbaar is nie. Verlede Vrydagmiddag het ‘n nuwe intrekker in die dorp en besoeker van ‘n buurdorp met mekaar in die kruising gebots, omdat die een motoris nie geweet het hy moet daar stop nie.

Quranic Verse Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones? Rather, we are able to put together in perfect order his fingertips. Quran: 75: 3-4 Explanation of the verse The Qur’an often reminds us of God’s miraculous power by using simple but relevant examples. Of all the limbs of our body God chose to use the fingertip as an example of how perfectly in order he would bring us back to life, showing that there is something very significant about the fingertip. Today we know that every human being has his own unique fingerprint to such an extent that no two fingerprints are alike. While the Quran is lending credence to its divine authorship, it also reminds us that no one can escape god and our refuge is only in him and not by turning away from him. It is therefore useless to reject his clear signs when we would inevitably return to him. Therefore, we should look forward to the day we meet him and be happy to live in awe and belief in him rather than in anger and rejection of him.” Free Copy of the Translation of Quran available on request.

New Venetia Mine GM meets the local media Mining News

The newly appointed general manager of De Beers Venetia Mine, Mr Gerrie Nortjé, said he was committed to the continued development of the mine and the communities in which they operate. Nortjé was addressing members of the media during a breakfast session held at the Venetia Guesthouse in Musina on Monday. The session was meant to introduce Nortjé to members of the media. He replaces Mr Benford Mokoatle, who The newly appointed general manager of De Beers Venetia Mine, Mr Gerrie Nortjé (left) left the mine for greener pastures after serving for photographed with the editor of the Limpopo Mirror, Mr Wikus Lee, during the media breakfast 11 months. session at Musina on Monday. Nortjé is not a novice to the mining industry. He worked as assistant general manager responsible for production for a year at the same mine before his new appointment. He also boasts several years of experience in senior management positions at both the Anglo and Xstrata mining houses. Nortjé said it was important for the mine to develop a good working relationship with members of the media to accelerate community engagement. “The media play a very critical role in community development and as such, we should embrace them as part of our big family at Venetia Mine. We are looking forward to a continued engagement with the media to share information that will improve the lives of our people.” He added that open conversations such as these

assists them to communicate the successes of their social labour plans to their communities easily. “It is through the media that community members should know that we have spent millions of rands to improve services in our labour-sending areas.” He added that he would continue with the mine’s commitment to ‘safety first’ and ‘zero harm’ while, at the same time, consolidating the employer’s obligation of encouraging a good-health lifestyle among all employees. “We care much about our employees because they are the driving force behind our success. These are the people who will help us to achieve our objective of converting our operations from open-pit to underground mining. Let me take this opportunity to inform members of the media that our open-pit mining is expected to continue until 2021 and production in the underground mine is scheduled to commence in 2022 and continue to 2043.” The Zoutpansberger’s sister publication’s editor, Mr Wikus Lee of the Limpopo Mirror, was one of the representatives of the various media houses who attended the media breakfast session. “We take the invitation very seriously, because we regard Venetia Mine as an important content provider in our news room.

SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 16 FEBRUARY 2018

Reasons why it’s important to support

L CAL BUSINESSES very selfish statement, saying that the consumer has no rights. Buying and selling is a dynamic process, with various market forces at play. Studies done in the USA and in Canada have A local business that cares about its consumshown that, for every R100 spent at a local ers, will listen to what they have to say. If you business, between R46 and R68 get re-circucan find the product much cheaper online, tell lated in the local economy. This is compared to between R18 and R43 that get re-circulated this to the local business and ask them whether they can offer an alternative. If the business when the money is spent at a national chain is worth their salt, they will look into it and store. The picture is even worse if it gets spent possibly explain the reasons why their product online. The money “left” in the local economy creates jobs and helps the economy grow. Local is more expensive. A store often needs to carry stock and sometimes the stock was bought businesses pay taxes, make donations and when prices were high. An online retailer purchase a lot of their goods and services from doesn’t necessarily carry stock and can “order other local businesses. Chain businesses, on the on request”. Just keep this in mind when reother hand, tend to get their supplies from corturning a broken product.

4. KEEP YOUR COMMUNITY SPECIAL Local businesses give a community its unique flavour. Towns across South Africa have similar chain restaurants, grocery and department stores, but that coffee shop down the street where you have breakfast every Saturday morning is one-of-a-kind. The combined presence of your town’s many local businesses makes it different from every other town in the world. By supporting those businesses instead of chains, you ensure that uniqueness is preserved as a part of your community.

Business relationships get built on trust. If you know the people you buy from, you can call on that relationship to ensure that you get a good deal and after-sale service. It’s not just about the price. Consider that when you order a product via the internet and it breaks, you have to wait weeks for it to be returned. You also have to send it back to the supplier and deal with strangers who don’t necessarily trust you. The trust relationship also spills back to the community. Small businesses started their 5.

LAB-stelsel gee jong Triegies ‘n voorsprong Deur Isabel Venter

Vandag se skoolleerlinge staar ‘n toekoms in die gesig waar baie werksgeleenthede deur robotte oorgeneem kan word. Daarom is dit belangrik om nou reeds pro-aktief op te tree deur leerlinge met die regte vaardighede toe te rus. Dit is om hierdie rede dat Hoërskool Louis Trichardt be sluit het om Lectorsa se Labon-line stelsel (LAB) aan te skaf en by die Graad 8-sillabus te inkorporeer. Hierdie virtuele stelsel is ont werp deur Lectorsa ná meer as

30 jaar se navorsing. Lectorsa is ‘n internasionale navorsingsen ontwikkelingsmaatskappy wat verantwoordelik is vir die LAB-projek. LAB is ‘n web-gebaseerde program wat elke student se informasie en vordering op die Cloud stoor. Dus kan ‘n student enige tyd, enige plek en met enige slimfoon of rekenaar inskakel op sy of haar profiel. Die stelsel is ontwerp om leerders se vaardighede optimaal te ontwikkel om sodoende te verseker dat hulle in ‘n immer-veranderende wêreld kan floreer. LAB verbeter onder

andere leerders se begrip, kritiese denke, leesspoed en geheue deur middel van interaktiewe lesse wat voltooi moet word. “LAB gaan in die Graad 8’s se rooster geïntegreer word, en is daarop gemik om hulle voor te berei vir die uitdagings van werk, lewe en burgerskap in ‘n wêreld waar verandering konstant is en leer voortdurend moet plaasvind,” het skoolhoof mnr. Louis Cilliers gesê. “Dit is ons verantwoordelikheid om die leerders voor te berei vir werksmoontlikhede wat Christelle Coetzer (voor) is besig met die LAB-program wat leerlinge by die skool sal gebruik nog nie eens bestaan nie,” het hy om hulle meer aanpasbaar te maak vir ‘n tegnologiese wêreld. Saam met haar is van die skool se bygevoeg. onderwysers. Agter, van links na regs, is me. Liandra Cilliers, me. Daleen Janse van Rensburg (LAB), die skoolhoof, mnr. Louis Cilliers, en mnr.

Local farmers urged to report all incidents of Fall Army Worm (FAW) By Silas Nduvheni

The Limpopo Department of Agriculture and Rural Development is thanking the farmers and other stakeholders in the province who are reporting incidents of Fall Army Worm (FAW). The spokesperson for the department, Mr Selby Mokgotho, said FAW was first detected in the province in early 2017 and caused damage primarily in maize, sorghum and about 70 other host species. FAW is an

exotic pest that had its origin in central America and its moths can fly thousands of kilometres in a short period of time and mostly fly according to the direction of the wind. “In this current maize-planting season, farmers and other stakeholders from affected areas started reporting FAW incidences, which were confirmed by local agricultural technicians and monitoring trap catches placed in some of these areas,” said Mokgotho. The areas where the pest occur are Mutale, Matangari,

Thohoyandou, Mashamba, Niani in the Vhembe district, Lulekani, Nwamitwa and Hoedspruit in the Mopani district, Thabazimbi, Bela Bela, Mookgopong, Mokgalakwena in the Waterberg district, Polokwane in the Capricorn district and Groblersdal in the Sekhukhune district He said affected farmers were therefore advised to report FAW incidences to their local agricultural offices immediately for assistance with identification, confirmation and management of the pest.

A local manufacturer of plastic water tanks, Pennells, is currently working hard to help supply in the need for such tanks in the Western Cape. The Western Cape is experiencing one of the worst water crises ever. The demand for tanks to be used as reservoirs has soared. According to Mr Howard Pennells, the local factory will be sending 48 tanks per week to the Western Cape for the next two months.

Ek is ... die Weg, die Waarheid en die lewe Esegiël 33:1-10.

ierdie is ‘n mooi gedeelte oor God se genade.

Daar is mense wat die basuin blaas en dié wat dit nie doen nie. Daar is mense wat die basuin hoor en luister, en daar is mense wat die basuin hoor maar nie luister nie. Niemand sal eendag kan sê hy het nie die basuin gehoor nie. Daarom moet ons die Woord van God ken. Vertrou die Heilige Gees om jou insig te gee sodat jy die Woord van God sal verstaan. God die Heilige Gees het mense geïnspireer om die Bybel te skryf. Wie kan die Bybel dan beter verklaar as Hy? (2 Tim. 2:7). Die basuin van waarheid moet geblaas word, want daarin lê vrymaking (Joh. 8:32). Moenie bang wees om oor die waarheid te praat nie, want “die gemeente is die draer en beskermer van die waarheid” (1 Tim. 3:15). Sommige mense sal hoor, maar hulle sal dit nie ter harte neem nie (Vers 5). Wees jy net getrou. Daar is mense wat sal ag slaan op die waarskuwing van die Skrif. Vertrou dat die Here self die harte van mense sal aanraak. Bly jy op jou pos en blaas die basuin. - 079 516 8303

Mr Johan Fourie wrote the following in response to an article that appeared in last week’s edition of the Zoutpansberger about the mining company Smarty (South Africa) Mineral Investment (Pty) Ltd’s interest to mine copper near Musina:

nother mining company seeing only dollar signs, and when confronted with the real questions that matter, they have no answers! Not any one of the mining companies that have mining plans in the Limpopo Valley has been able to answer one crucial question: Where is the water going to come from? Farmers are battling to survive due to a lack of water and rain in the area. Now mining companies want to take the little we have for their short-term and unsustainable mining ventures! Furthermore, mining licences, water licences and environmental authorization are handed out left, right and centre without anyone considering the cumulative impact of all of these developments on the resources, people, food production and other economic activities in the area. Each application is evaluated in isolation without any consideration for other economic activities or developments in the area. Where are the resource audit and resource-use plan for the region? Where is an integrated development plan for the total development of the

region (not IDPs for individual municipal areas, since they look at the development of a town in isolation)? Have we got any idea how much water is available, how many existing economic activities rely on the limited water resources, and how many communities and people must survive on the little water there is? Is the infrastructure available to service all these developments? The Department of Trade and Industry talks about large-scale industrial development and even a coal-fired power plant for the area. Where are the EIAs? What impact will it have on existing economic activities (tourism and agriculture, food production) and the water resources of the area, not to even talk about the pollution that will result from this?! It is high time that the right questions are being asked and satisfactory answers provided to all these questions and to the future development of the region! The water scarcity in Cape Town will look like a “baby” in comparison to what will happen if the Limpopo Valley runs out of water! With four consecutive years of drought and predictions that matters will get worse in the future, we are a lot closer to a water disaster than what we think! It is time this is taken into consideration by the government and mining companies when they sit

in their air-conditioned, luxury offices and work on plans for the development of the region! You cannot plan from your office desk, you do it at ground level, with the people and with up-to-date and adequate information at your disposal!

Borge se hulp word waardeer Die inwoners van Laat Lente en Herfsakker het die volgende geskryf:

omtyds gebeur dinge in die lewe en mense neem alles as vanselfsprekend, maar ons, die inwoners van Laat Lente en Herfsakker, wil die donateurs bedank vir elke dingetjie wat ons as geskenk kry. Die groenteman wat een keer per maand baie groente kom aflaai! Jan van Mike’s Kitchen wat die bejaardes uitgenooi het vir potjiekos by Northgate Lodge. Dan het ons mango’s, groen soetrissies en speserye ontvang van iemand – ons bedank julle almal. Berg Care het ook sy bedrae gelewer met huishoudelike goedjies vir elke woonstel.

Fresh from successful participation at the 2018 Investing in African Mining Indaba that ended last week in Cape Town, the Roads Agency Limpopo (RAL) will host a stakeholder engagement and fundraising session with the mining industry in the Sekhukhune District Municipality of Limpopo Province. According to a press release issued by RAL, the event is scheduled for 16 February 2018 at Lapeng Guest Lodge in Burgersfort. “The session is an opportunity which will not only benefit RAL, but mines and communities. It is therefore important that we join hands in ensuring that this and other future relationship-building sessions or events become a success,” said RAL CEO Maselaganye Matji. According to RAL, they are reaping the benefits of its resourceful association with the mining

industry. In 2015, the then new RAL board and executive management of the agency, led by the board’s chairperson, Matome Ralebipi, and CEO Maselaganye Matji, adopted a strategic-partnership approach as part of the successful turnaround strategy for the agency that had just returned from being under administration. “Through this approach, RAL is targeting to create partnerships with the private sector relevant or benefiting from the Limpopo provincial road infrastructure network to help augment its constrained budgetary and financial resources for the construction, rehabilitation and maintenance of Limpopo’s roads. This partnership includes both RAL and the private sector co-funding key economically strategic road infrastructure projects in the Limpopo Province,” said RAL. The mining sector, particularly, has been the flagship of this approach. Since adopting this strategic partnership approach, RAL has raised more

than R380 million and continues to secure more partnerships. R100 million is the amount targeted for the current financial year. According to Matji, more than attracting new partners, RAL wants to strengthen its relations with the existing ones, hence their recent participation at the Mining Indaba and these stakeholder-engagement events. At the recent Mining Indaba, the agency engaged and strengthened its relationships with current strategic partners in various projects, among others De Beers, Exarro, Ledjadja Coal and PPC Cement. “RAL has been mandated to manage, control, plan, develop, and maintain the provincial road network on behalf of the Limpopo provincial government. The road asset portfolio of RAL measures in the extent of 20 260 kilometres (km), of which only 5 974 km is tarred and the balance of 14 286km is gravel or dirt roads,” said RAL.

News with an independent soul

Limpopo Landelike Forum Veiligheid (LLFV) het op 30 Januarie hulle eerste vergadering vir 2018 gehou, waartydens die forum ‘n landelike veiligheidsaksieplan geformuleer het wat op 7 Februarie aan die provinsiale polisiekommissaris voorgelê sal word. Soos reeds voorheen berig, het TLU SA Noord en Agri Limpopo reeds in 2015 organisatoriese grense afgebreek en veral op landelike veiligheidsgebied begin saamwerk. Hierdie samewer kingspoging het ook onbetrokke landbouers en privaat sekuriteitsmaatskappye, en op plekke ook GPF strukture, ingesluit. Die liggaam wat hieruit tot stand gekom het, staan in landelike veiligheidskringe in Limpopo bekend as Limpopo Landbou Forum Veiligheid (LLFV). Die groep word deur die Provinsiale SAPD bevelstruktuur erken as die verteenwoordigende landelike veiligheidstruktuur en verteenwoordig die leiers groep ook landelike veiligheid op die landelike veiligheidsprioriteitskomitee wat kwartaalliks met die SAPD en ander rolspelers vergader. Verlede week se vergadering is weer deur verteenwoordigers van regoor die provinsie bygewoon. “Die gebiede wat nog nie verteenwoordiging op die struktuur het nie, sal binnekort besoek word om hulle deelname aan die forum aan te moedig,” het die LLFV in ‘n persverklaring gesê. Wat die landelike veiligheidsaksieplan betref, berus die plan sterk op die Limpopo Landelike Veiligheidsplan van die provinsiale SAPD wat gedurende September 2017 uitgereik is en deur alle

rolspelers onderteken is. “LLFV se aksieplan vir 2018 het daarom ten doel om aan die provinsiale landelike veiligheidsplan uitvoering te gee,” het die LLFV gesê. Die aksieplan berus verder op goeie samewerking tussen landelike veiligheidstrukture en die SAPD vanaf stasievlak tot by die provinsiale kommissaris, deur alle bevelskanale van die SAPD te volg. “Die bestuur en lede van LLFV, in samewerking met die provinsiale SAPD, is oortuig dat die aksieplan en die provinsiale landelike veiligheidsplan tot beter landelike veiligheid sal lei. Limpopo se ekonomie

steun swaar op landbou en landboubedrywe, en dit kan slegs binne ’n veilige omgewing tot sy volle reg kom,” het die LLFV gesê. Die LLFV het enige landelike veiligheidstruktuur of plaaswag wat nog nie deel van LLFV is nie uitgenooi om die kantoor van Agri Limpopo by 015 065 0669 of 082 451 7913, of die streekkantoor van TLU SA Noord by 082 555 4553 of 082 774 9287 te skakel, sodat hulle deel van die Limpopo Landelike Veiligheidstruktuur kan word en daardeur erkenning kan kry by die provinsiale SAPD bevelstruktuur.

Helen takes over reins at KidZart By Isabel Venter

The KidZart School in Louis Trichardt has come under new ownership, that of Mrs Helen van Heerden. Helen, an artist in her own right, recently took over the studio from the previous owner, Mrs Mariza Joubert. Mariza decided to hand over the reins to pursue a teaching career at Louis Trichardt High School. Helen will continue to provide qualitative art education to children aged five to 10 years. KidZart will also continue, like in the past, to work closely with the La Mia Nuvoletta Art Studio. Henceforth the older students (11 years and older)

will be accommodated at La Mia Nuvoletta. “I’m very excited about this new venture. I love to see how children experience pure bliss when they create,” said Helen. She is no stranger to the art world and has some experience in teaching art. Her vision for KidZart is to offer a balance between creativity and educational exchange, and to stimulate children through art processes to discover the world that they live in. She explained the difference between “arts and crafts” and art education. Art education includes the transference of the principles and formal elements of art, such

as line, form, colour, shape and the use of space. During the course of the year, Helen will transfer these skills to students by allowing them to experiment with different media (pencil, charcoal, sculpture work, painting, etc). All this will equip the children with the basis for creative problem solving, develop their perceptual skills, improve their concentration and equip them with career skills for a wide variety of occupations. Art classes will take place from Mondays to Wednesdays. To book a space for your child or for more information, Helen can be contacted at Tel 072 844 6007.

Plaaslike fietsryer deel van professionele span Deur Isabel Venter

Rick Coetzee, ‘n plaaslike fietsryer van Louis Trichardt, is nou as’t ware ‘n professionele ryer. Hy is vroeër in die jaar deur Team Life Cycle genader om deel van hulle amateur span ryers te wees. Die span is op die been gebring deur Annelize van Zyl, wat self ook ‘n gesoute fietsryer is. Een van Team LifeCycle se grootste borge is die prokureursfirma Gert Nel Ingelyf, wat gebaseer is

in Pretoria. Hulle span bestaan uit 26 fietsryers van regoor Suid-Afrika, met twee fietsryers wat van Limpopo afkomstig is, waarvan Rick een is. Rick se ander spanmaat is die voormalige Triegie, die 23-jarige Juandré Brits wat deesdae in Tzaneen woon. Albei van hulle is padfietsryers wat al aan heelwat provinsiale en nasionale wedrenne deelgeneem het. Rick is plaaslik ook bekend vir heelwat podium

Louis Trichardt XI secure win over determined Nkowankowa cricket team Cricket News

Louis Trichardt Cricket Club’s premier league side scored a 31-run victory against the team from Nkowankowa on Sunday. The match was played in Louis Trichardt and the home side batted first. They were off to a good start, thanks to contributions by Nimesh Watekar (19), Leon Olwage (45) and Salauddin Patel (25). Leon Furstenburg added 16 runs, but it was left to Warno Smit to do the damage. He scored a brilliant 56 from just 32 balls. Christo Gerber (21 not out) helped him to take the score to 204/10 after 35 overs. Nkowankowa’s most successful bowler was Chris Mathebula, who took 4/43 in 10 overs. Artwell Mokgoloboto took 2/53 and Thomas Ngwenya took 2/8. Nkowankowa’s batsmen were determined to chase down the score and were off to a good start, thanks to opener Nhlanhla Shikwambana, who scored 51 from 82 balls. He found some support in Lethabo Phakula (12) and Lungi Mhlongo (16),

but the pressure of seeing wickets fall around him seemed to be too much. Thomas Ngwenya (25) and Lordwick Mhlongo (13) put up a good fight, but Louis Trichardt’s bowlers kept applying pressure. The last wicket fell in the 44th over with the score on 173. Gerhardus Fourie was by far the home side’s best bowler. This young speedster took 4/30 in his eight overs. Wouter Smit was not only effective by taking three wickets, but in his six overs he only conceded 11 runs. On Sunday, Louis Trichardt play on their home ground against Hornbill Cricket Club. Nkowankowa will travel to Polokwane to play against Aces.

plekke wat hy al ingepalm het by pad- sowel as bergfietswedrenne. In 2016 was hy ook deel van die Soutpansberg se heel eerste professionele fietsryspan, Team TacPulse. As lid van die span het hy leiding gegee as kaptein en ook sommer die streek verteenwoordig tydens daardie jaar se 175 km Kremetart padfietswedren. Nes sy lewensleuse – “just keep moving” – is Rick ook altyd aan die gang. As hy nie besig is om te oefen op sy fiets nie, draf hy; om die waarheid te sê, hy is ook ‘n lid van Team Life Cycle se hardloopspan, Team Life Runners. Hy en Juandré sal wel van tyd tot tyd gesien word op ‘n bergfiets ook. Die bergfietsryery, het al twee vinnig verduidelik, is om te help met die fiksheid - iets waaraan daar nou drasties gewerk word in voorbereiding vir twee van die grootste wedrenne, naamlik die Cape Town Cycle Tour (Cape Argus) wat in Maart beslis sal word en die 94.7 Challenge later die jaar in November gehou sal word.
