“The open cast mine site, the proposed railway siding, all the crop farms, the KNP Crocodile Bridge entrance just to mention a few sites. I had to also take them to the different ‘specialists’ and ‘experts’ for an interview. eg.

“The actually shooting was very time-consuming in all different terrains and scenarios. The Carte Blanche team now still need to interview the mining company and the consulting company.
“As soon as they give me the airing date, I will share it with all of you.
“On behalf of Marloth Park, and all interested and affected parties, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Carte Blanche and all the “experts” for their time and valuable input. Great awareness will be created as to this mine, and I’m sure a lot of eyes will be opened,” Benson concluded.
