S.Africa court backs villagers against mining firm
A South African court has overturned mining prospecting rights granted in platinum-rich Limpopo province...on two farms held by Genorah Resources, a majority shareholder in Australia-listed junior platinum miner Nkwe Platinum. The country's top court determined that Genorah had failed to consult people who owned the land where it wanted to prospect, a decision that may spur other communities to mount legal challenges against the industry.
