NATURAL RADIOACTIVITY IN SOILS OF THE WALVIS BAY – HENTIES BAY COASTAL AREA, NAMIBIA. A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NAMIBIA BY SIMON ANDREW SHIMBOYO JANUARY 2013 Supervisor: Professor James Akindele Oyedele (University of Namibia) ii ABSTRACT Naturally occurring radionuclides such as 238U, 232Th and 40K are present in the soil where they disintegrate spontaneously releasing ionizing radiation which could pose health hazards to the inhabitants of a given location especially when the concentrations of the radionuclides are high. In Namibia, the Walvis Bay – Henties Bay coastal area is known to have many mineral resources including uranium and therefore the concentrations of the radionuclides in the soils and the associated radioactivity may be high in some towns in the area. It is therefore important to study the concentrations of radionuclides and the radioactivity in the soils of the major towns in the area. In this study, the concentrations of the radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K and their progeny, and their contribution to natural radioactivity in the soils of six major towns in the Walvis Bay – Henties Bay coastal area have been determined. These towns are Usakos, Arandis, Swakopmund, Walvis Bay, Wlotzkasbaken and Henties Bay. A total of 305 soil samples were collected across the six towns and dried under laboratory temperature for 72 hours. These samples were pulverised and passed through a 2 mm mesh screen and sealed in 500 ml polythene bottles. The specific activities of the radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K in the samples were subsequently analysed using a well-shielded high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector. -
Cape Cross Salt Mining
ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES ON EXCLUSIVE PROSPECTING LICENCE EPL4185 AT WLOTZKASBAKEN January 2013 Prepared by: Gecko Namibia (Pty) Ltd Gecko House 8 Sinclair Road Windhoek, Namibia Reviewed by: Nam Enviro Management and Training Services cc Mutjinde Katjiua SUMMARY Gecko Namibia (Pty) Ltd, in the name of its subsidiary Gecko Salt (Pty) Ltd holds EPL4185 which covers 75,335 hectares of coastal desert plains from north of Swakopmund to just south of the Henties Bay peri-urban area. Gecko intends to establish the “Vision Industrial Park” and harbour within the area. The development will require a large amount of fine and coarse aggregate material as well as armour stone for the construction of a breakwater facility. Besides the envisaged VIP development, Gecko is in the process of exploring a number of high-grade marble occurrences on this EPL. As part of the EPL4185 falls within the Dorob National Park, Gecko is submitting this EIA together with Environmental Questionnaires and other prescribed documentation in application for an Environmental Clearance Certificate under the Environmental Management Act of 2007. The company has drawn up an Environmental Management Plan for the prospecting operations and is currently in the process of implementing those measures. Management and exterior control on the adherence of the proposed mitigation actions are considered important tools in preventing negative environmental impacts from the operations. Activities during the exploration phase include sampling, testing and exploratory drilling. The activities are temporary and are conducted at a small scale than those at the drilling/development, production, and decommissioning/reclamation phases. -
