The government has gazetted new regulations banning mining activities by individuals granted special permits, in response to the environmental damage caused by alluvial mining along several rivers.
Statutory Instrument 188 of 2024 specifies that anyone found violating these regulations will be considered guilty of an offence and liable to a fine not exceeding level 14, imprisonment for up to twelve months, or both a fine and imprisonment. Reads the Statutory Instrument:

(3) Any person who contravenes subsection (1) shall be guilty of an offence and liable to a fine not exceeding level 14 or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding twelve (12) months or to both such fine and such imprisonment.
(4) A magistrates’ court convicting any person for contravening subsection (3) shall, on its own motion or on the motion of the prosecutor, order the person convicted to undertake such remedial action as may Seizure pursuant to section 3.
(5) The holder any special grant or written authority referred to in subsection (1)(a) (i) or (ii) who, immediately before the date of promulgation of this section, was lawfully conducting alluvial mining activities or carrying out prospecting for alluvial deposits shall, with effect from the promulgation of this section, immediately cease such activities or prospecting, and must, no later than thirty days of such cessation, have carried out such rehabilitation measures in terms of section 7 as may be appropriate in the circumstances.

(3) All property which has been seized under subsection
(1) shall
(a) be taken forthwith and delivered to a place of security under the control of an inspector or police officer; and

or
be necessary to rectify any environmental damage caused by the violation of this section, or make an order for damages proven to have been suffered during the course of the prosecution to be paid out for any persons affected by such contravention.
(ii) the criminal proceedings have resulted in the conviction of the accused person, in which event the convicting court may order any such items to be forfeited to the State or returned to the accused person, as it deems fit in the circumstances.

The government has made new rules to stop people with special permits from mining by rivers. Breaking these rules can lead to a big fine or even jail time. The rules say no mining can be done in or near any river, even if you have permission. If you break the rules, your things can be taken away. The new rules aim to protect the environment from damage caused by mining. The old rules from 2021 are no longer valid. The government wants to make sure people follow the new rules to take care of the rivers.
