The Departments of Mineral Resources and the Department of the Environment have given CoAL their license to operate their Vele mine. I am informed that our Minister of the Environment said that CoAl has invested too much money already for her department to reject the application. This mine already flooded in the last rain season spilling into the nearby Limpopo river. See CoAl Press Release Below. Red lights flashing!
