摘要: This review considers the potential to better plan for artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) during Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) phase of new major mine developments. We contrast contextualise parallel development comprehensive closure regulation in South Africa with resultant lack progress actual rehabilitation its large growing negative legacy. discuss socio-economic conditions around current tendency/flaw governance that ignores extensive ASM activities exist. The ramifications omitting known cumulative impact compromises efforts undertake large-scale effectively both theory practice. leaves some plans unachievable due cessation attracting activity, consequently ‘re-opening’ mine. EIA process as an existing legal mechanism generate wider consultation post-mine activity options, formally recognise incorporate a for. Governance obligations companies policymakers should directly cater ASM, focus directed towards mitigating consequences maximising local benefits sector can create, managed through processes.
