[PDF] Mining-related observations and recommendations: Anglo Platinum, affected communities and other stakeholders, in and around the PPL Mine, Limpopo

The investigation initiated by the South African Human Rights Commission (“SAHRC”) at the end of March 2008 was intended to focus on the broad human rights context surrounding the resettlement process undertaken by Anglo Platinum’s Potgietersrust Platinums Limited Mine [in] Limpopo...The overriding challenge that the SAHRC has recognised during this investigation is the almost total disintegration of trust in the relocation process...The fundamental observation made by the SAHRC is the need for companies to move beyond legal compliance and push for the development of processes and institutional structures which actually identify and manage the multitude of risks associated with resettlement.
