In 2017 September Bokoni platinum mine under Anglo American platinum mine placed on care and maintenance.
After mine acknowledged that Rapholo River is expanding towards their infrastructure being the tailing dams which are located at Atok and affects communities like Monametse, Maruping, Mphaaneng to Mphahlele side when wind blows towards west direction and cover all those with clouds of dust.
However the mine received grievance against dust of the tailing dams, which violates our community health status and environmental rights.
The impact seriously affects our health status.
