The geometrical tortoise is one of the rarest tortoises in the world and face extinction. In is know in only 5 geological areas in South-Africa. The Paardeberg Mountain is one of those areas. Please help to conserve this area - one mining site will be 500m from the mountain foot

Must be plenty of other places to get sand rather than disrupt this important and exciting wine region. Good for exports too.

This would be a disaster for one of the most beautiful and welcoming places I have ever been. Please dont ruin what I have come to love and respect! There is a whole lot of country out there without having to resort to mining here....

This is a demoralisation of our people and our soil by the South African government - we and our environment must be protected: Section 24 of the Bill of Rights

Short term profit. Blatant disregard for the environment and people living about 800m from it. Must be stopped!

We demand that the Swartland Municipal Tribunal reverse its grant of consent use to authorise sand mining activities on the Paardeberg.

Another horrible example of money-grubbing greed in the construction industry. Blatant disregard for the environment and residents. Stop this NOW.
