  • North-West Province
    © Lonely Planet Publications 509 North-West Province From safaris to slots, the pursuit of pleasure is paramount in the North-West Province. And with the top three reasons to visit less than a six-hour drive from Johannesburg, this region is more than fun. It’s convenient. Gambling is the name of the game here, although not always in the traditional sense. Place your luck in a knowledgeable ranger’s hands at Madikwe Game Reserve and bet on how many lions he’ll spot on the sunrise wildlife drive. You have to stay to play at this exclusive reserve on the edge of the Kalahari, and the lodges here will be a splurge for many. But for that once-in-a-lifetime, romantic Out of Africa–style safari experience, South Africa’s fourth-largest reserve can’t be beat. If you’d rather spot the Big Five without professional help, do a self-drive safari in Pi- lanesberg National Park. The most accessible park in the country is cheaper than Madikwe, and still has 7000 animals packed into its extinct volcano confines. Plus it’s less than three hours’ drive from Jo’burg. When you’ve had your fill betting on finding rhino, switch to cards at the opulent Sun City casino complex down the road. The final component of the province’s big attraction trifecta is the southern hemisphere’s answer to Las Vegas: a shame- lessly gaudy, unabashedly kitsch and downright delicious place to pass an afternoon. Madikwe, Pilanesberg and Sun City may be the North-West Province’s heavyweight at- tractions, but there are more here than the province’s ‘Big Three’.

  • Groundwater and Surface Water) Quality and Management in the North-West Province, South Africa
    A scoping study on the environmental water (groundwater and surface water) quality and management in the North-West Province, South Africa Report to the WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION by CC Bezuidenhout and the North-West University Team WRC Report No. KV 278/11 ISBN No 978-1-4312-0174-7 October 2011 The publication of this report emanates from a WRC project titled A scoping study on the environmental water (groundwater and surface water) quality and management in the north- West Province, south Africa (WRC Project No. K8/853) DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND & RATIONALE Water in the North West Province is obtained from ground and surface water sources. The latter are mostly non-perennial and include rivers and inland lakes and pans. Groundwater is thus a major source and is used for domestic, agriculture and mining purposes mostly without prior treatment. Furthermore, there are several pollution impacts (nitrates, organics, microbiological) that are recognised but are not always addressed. Elevated levels of inorganic substances could be due to natural geology of areas but may also be due to pollution. On the other hand, elevated organic substances are generally due to pollution from sanitation practices, mining activities and agriculture. Water quality data are, however, fragmented. A large section of the population of the North West Province is found in rural settings and most of them are affected by poverty.

Accepted 15 July 2016 2015 marked the 90th anniversary of the description of the first fossil of Australopithecus africanus, commonly known as the Taung Child, which was unearthed during blasting at the Buxton-Norlim Limeworks (referred to as the BNL) 15 km SE of the town of Taung, South Africa. Subsequently, this site has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site on the basis of its importance to southern African palaeoanthropology. Some other sites such as Equus Cave and Black Earth Cave have also been investigated; but the latter not since the 1940s. These sites indicate that the complex of palaeontological and archaeological localities at the BNL preserve a time sequence spanning the Pliocene to the Holocene. The relationship of these various sites and how they fit into the sequence of formation of tufa, landscapes and caves at the limeworks have also not been investigated or discussed in detail since Peabody’s efforts in the 1940s.

It aims to generate knowledge about how to strengthen health systems, policies and interventions in ways which preferentially benefit the poorest. The research is organised in four themes: health sector reform, financial risk protection, health workforce performance and scaling up. The consortium will achieve its aim by: • working in partnership to develop research • strengthening the capacity of partners to undertake relevant research and of policymakers to use research effectively • communicating findings in a timely, accessible and appropriate manner so as to influence local and global policy development For more information about CREHS please contact: Consortium for Research on Equitable Health Systems (CREHS) London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Keppel Street, London, UK WC1E 7HT Email: [email protected] Website: www.crehs.lshtm.ac.uk For more information about this research paper please contact: Ermin Erasmus Email: [email protected] 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ……………………………………………………….……………………… 4 SECTION A: INTRODUCTION ……………………………………………………………...………..
