New system allows for greater mining exploration, Anti-corruption operations recover over R12 billion, old banknotes are still legal tender, Russia to test “unstoppable” missile.
: The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy’s Tseliso Maqubela says the government should finish the procurement process for a new mining cadastral system by the end of 2023. The new system should allow for greater mining exploration, as the department currently lacks an online cadastral system that would allow prospectors to see who owns which exploration right in a certain area.
Some shopkeepers are reportedly refusing to accept the discontinued notes but they are legally obliged to accept them. However, R200 notes manufactured before 2005 are not accepted as legal tender as they were discontinued in 2010 to prevent counterfeiting. [Russia is reportedly planning to test-fire a hypersonic Zircon missile during a naval exercise between South Africa, China and Russia later this month.
