Samrad online6 Jun 2023 14:25
Does anyone know much about the licensing system i did a bit of digging and found a link yesterday to samrad online but id doent work, thought it would have been good to view the application, it says about the system...
SAMRAD ONLINE is the South African Mineral Resources Administration System where the general public can view the locality of applications, rights and permits made or held in terms of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (Act 28 of 2002), (The MPRDA), and where applications in terms thereof can be submitted electronically.
there seems to be a lot of problems with the licensing system and they are looking to replace it, there are various articles online about this, although mostly from a couple of years back, i have copied below a section from one i found in mining weekly
... The DMRE has recently indicated that the processing of 235 mining rights, 2 485 prospecting rights, 1 644 mining permits, 238 Section 11 change of ownership transfers and 724 licence renewals are currently backlogged.
does anyone have any more current information the above is from 2021 but the samrad system doesnt seem to have been replaced yet??
