Dwarsrivier Mine

Dwarsrivier Mine assistswith lighting up villages

Dwarsrivier Mine assisted Greater Tubatse Municipality to

repair and do maintenance on various lights in the municipal

area. The municipality is very dependent on the assistance

of large companies as the budget is simply not big enough

to address all the needs in the area.

In many areas the high mast lights were broken and technical

expertise was needed to fix

them. The areas in which the

mine assisted was

Mashamthane, Ntoampe Sport

Ground, Leboeng, Ohrigstad,Motaganeng, Tjate, Malekane

Cross, Marula Mine area,

Lehlaba Cross, Maphopha and

Phiring.

One of the problems that were

discovered is the theft of

electricity. Some of the high

mast lights could not shine to full capacity as local residents

near the poles illegall y connected their homes to the supply.

This is not only dangerous and illegal, but it is also causing

the lights to not function at optimal levels.

In some areas such as the Motaganeng cross, there was a

pole but no lights or electrical connection existed. The

installation of lights and the supply of electricity was then part

of the deal.

The high mast lights are making it much safer in areas that were

previously dark and dangerous.

Dwarsrivier Mine, contractors and Greater Tubatse Municipality

worked together on this project through 2013 to ensure that

the necessary work could be

done.

On Tuesday this week the last

of the lights were being fixed.

This time it was atMashamthane and a crane

was brought in to assist with

reaching and fixing the lights

at the top. Mr Pius Monyela

from Dwarsrivier Mine and

Mr Moses Mosoma from

Greater Tubatse Municipality

were on site to make sure that things go smoothly. The

municipality appealed to residents to look after the

infrastructure that is being put in place and not vandalise or

illegally connect to electrical points. Thanks to the partnership

between Dwarsrivier Mine and Greater Tubatse Municipality the

way is now lighted in many areas.

Mr Lesley Ndou who was contracted to work on the

project with Mr Moses Mosoma f rom Greater

Tubatse Municipality and Mr Pius Monyela from

Dwarsrivier Mine. They are standing at the cross

towards Motaganeng where a new light wasinstalled to light up the area.

The work was done throughout 2013 in various villages in the Greater

Tubatse Municipal area.

Thanks to this

partnership there is light

in many areas again

Twickenham case postponed

In the photograph people throng through the gate at Mecklenburgs Court on Wednesday just before 10:00. In fact

most of them (59 to be precise) appeared on charges relating to public violence, illegal gathering and intimidation of

postponed to 11 December 2013 during their brief appearance. Meanwhile, spokesperson Abednico Mashabela (one

of the accused, by the way) told the newspaper that a delegation comprising of community members was scheduled

to engage in discussions with the mines management at the local municipalitys premises in Burgersfort yesterday

have he said. We do not know what wil happen with the court case, but we need to continue discussiong the issues

Social crime coordinator at Burgersfort Police Station, Constable

Victoria Maluleka, this week made the public aware of crime on

the streets, by visiting automatic teller machines (ATMs). In view

of the importance of theses machines in Burgersfort, especially

during the festive season, constable Maluleka said it was

important to make people aware of the crimes that can take place

around teller machines. She advised that should people be

uncertain regarding the use of the machines, they should rather

try and do their business inside the bank (although it will be very

busy)! She also put up a number of safety hints the Police have

at ATMs and requested that the public take note of it. One of

these tips is to never trust a stranger and also to be wary ofthieves posing as Police or security personnel.

safety. Glencores Helena, Magareng, Thorncliffe

and Mototolo Mines, Two Rivers Platinum Mine,

Dwarsrivier Mine and Northam Booysendal Division

all participated in the campaign.

Female employees from these mines were up early

on 8 November as they tried to bring the message

of road safety not only to those coming to work, but

also those going home after a night shift.

Motorists were encouraged to honk their vehicles

hooters in support of the cause. Colourful posters

were displayed and ladies were true cheerleaders

for road safety as they shouted slogans in support

of safe driving.

Black and red balloons marked the area, with the

release of balloons at intervals. A display of smashed

up vehicles provided by R&P Panelbeaters,

emergency personnel and towing services finished

of the impact of the event.The organisers of the

campaign would like to thank everyone who

participated, donated and supported the endeavour.Colourful posters brought the

message of road safety to motorists.

Dwarsrivier Mine was one of the participating

mines in the road safety campaign. At the en-

trance to the mines plant employees were

greeted by friendly colleagues handing out air

fresheners and license disc stickers with road

safety messages.

Some of the mines Heads of Departments

joined the frien dly campaigners and made

sure that the vehicles employees arrived in

were in a road worthy condition, had valid li-

censes and that everyone in the vehicle wore

a seatbelt.

In an environment were safety is of the ut-

most importance Dwarsrivier Mine would like

to let their employees know that safety does

not stop at work. Families want their hard

working fathers and mothers back safe not

only from the mine, but also from the roads

they travel. Arrive Alive!
