Harmony Gold: West Wits Reclamation Project EIA and WULA

Randfontein Estates Limited (a Harmony Gold Mining Company subsidiary) has appointed Environmental Impact Management Services (EIMS) as the Environmental Assessment Practitioner to manage authorisation processes, public participation, and documentation for the proposed West Wits Reclamation and Deposition Project. The project includes constructing the Deelkraal II Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) and associated infrastructure about 13km southwest of Carltonville in Gauteng.

The new TSF, covering approximately 450 ha, will provide additional deposition capacity for operations, receive residue from Kusasalethu and Savuka plants, enable process water circulation, and support reclamation activities. Planned infrastructure includes pipelines, access roads, power lines, pump stations, a return water dam, and a reclamation plant, along with upgrades to the Kusasalethu plant.

EIMS will compile and submit the necessary documentation for the required environmental applications.
