In broad terms the project includes underground mining accessed via a boxcut, on-site crushing and screening, temporary stockpiling of coal ore, and transport off-site by truck to customers directly or via a regional railway siding. Various support infrastructure and services will be required for the project. The Commissiekraal farm covers an area of approximately 2,461 ha. The total footprint of surface infrastructure is approximately 14.7 hectares. Access to the site will be provided by upgrading and extending the existing farm access road.
