The bottleneck and the lack of a cadastre are two sides of the same coin that has jammed up investment into South Africa’s exploration sector. South Africa accounts for less than 1% of the global expenditure in exploration activities, a sign of a sunset industry. If prospective prospectors cannot get their permits, they cannot explore.

Asked afterwards for clarity, Maqubela said the backlog had been reduced by about 1,400 which would bring it to less than 4,000. That still seems like a large number but at least there is movement in the right direction. Patricia Gamede, the DMRE’s acting director-general, said the main obstacle lay with the State IT Agency , which falls under the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies and provides IT service support to all government departments.
Pressure, it must be said, has also been applied from many other quarters. The main industry body, the Minerals Council South Africa, has had endless engagements with the DMRE about the cadastre issue and even offered to pay for part of it.
