JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – JSE-listed Bauba on Friday announced that the Department of Water and Sanitation has granted a 20-year water-use licence (WUL), effective March 30, for the farm Moeijelijk 412.

This is an upgrade from the general authorisation for water use, which limited the extent of Bauba’s chrome mining operations at Moeijelijk.

The WUL allows for additional water uses and enables Bauba to more readily conduct its opencast and underground chrome ore mining operations.

“The granting of this licence is the next important milestone in the development of our Moeijelijk chrome mine and will help ensure our underground production timeline and targets are achieved,” said Bauba CEO Nick van der Hoven in an update to shareholders.
