Acid Mine Drainage (“AMD Sample Clauses

Acid Mine Drainage (“AMD. The High Density Sludge Plant (“HDSP”) has now been operational for five months. Central Rand Gold continues to monitor the water level at its mining operations as well as the daily flow rate, being the amount of water pumped out of the Central Basin from the HDSP. Overall, since July 2014, the water levels at Central Rand Gold’s mining operations have risen by approximately 5.8 vertical metres. The Company has observed that when the flow rate is maintained at approximately 60 million litres per day (“mlpd”), which equates to approximately 80% of nameplate capacity, a reduction in the water level occurs. The HDSP ran at or around nameplate capacity between mid- July 2014 and early August 2014 and accordingly, a reduction of approximately 1.5 vertical metres in the Central Basin water levels was reported. This trend provides evidence that the HDSP is able to de-water the Central Basin, even when the daily flow rate is only at 80% of the Ritz submersible pump capacity. The flow rate was reduced in mid-August 2014 as a result of the decision by the Trans Caledon Tunnel Authority (“TCTA”) to strengthen the mechanical components of the two 42 million litre thickeners at the HDSP. This upgrade was required in order to improve, manage and control the AMD sludge and to ensure the longer term improved performance of the HDSP. During September 2014, a temporary upgrade to the thickeners was completed. The final upgrade is planned for completion in early 2015. Until this upgrade has been completed, the daily flow rate is expected to be between 48 and 60 mlpd. If the planned daily flow rate can be maintained, the Board believes that the water level is not expected to change significantly during this time. Given that the Ritz submersible pumps have performed reliably since July 2014, it has been agreed that once the thickener upgrade has been completed, the TCTA will increase the flow rate to 84 mlpd. This represents a 17% increase on the original planned capacity of 72 mlpd. This increased capacity will provide the HDSP with greater ability to accelerate the future dewatering in the Central Basin to ensure that the underground AMD is, at a minimum, maintained at the Environmental Critical Level. This will allow Central Rand Gold to de-water the Central Basin to at least 450 metres below surface (“mbs”).
