Calls for the decriminalisation of illegal mining

NGO Action Aid has appealed to government to decriminalise illegal mining in South Africa. The organisation says this will help reduce violence in the sector, create employment and contribute to the country’s economy.

The report emanates from a study of over 1 000 artisanal miners in Kimberley, Carletonville and Vlakfontein. Contrary to popular belief, the study found that majority of the artisanal and illegal miners were South Africans followed by Lesotho, Zimbabwe and Malawian nationals.
