Representatives of mining communities have called for mine executives to be sued in their personal capacity for environmental damage done to communal land... Matome Kapa, an attorney at the Centre for Environmental Rights, said mining companies were failing to adhere to environmental legislation and the government had failed to enforce environmental laws... In a landmark court ruling, the mining director of Blue Platinum Ventures in Tzaneen became the first mining boss to be found guilty of breaking environmental laws in 2014... [Mining companies' social & labour plans] were not catering for communities, said Louis Snyman, an attorney and member of the Wits University’s Centre for Applied Legal Studies... “After the Marikana massacre we found SLPs are not being fulfilled. Normal people cannot access information...” Anglo Platinum chief executive Chris Griffith said it had consulted extensively but could not find a single voice that represented communities. [also refers to Aquila Steel]
