Technical Report for the

LESHOBO LIMESTONE

Taung, North-West Province

In the Northern part of this escarpment and about 15km from Leshobo Limestone
project lies two high grade deposits (CaCO3> 95%) in Norlim and Thomeng which are
said to be mined out. About 12 Mt were produced from these deposits between 1920
and 1959 and were the major source of limestone in the country for many years. A
number of deposits are also known along the Ghaap Plateau escarpment, including the
Leshobo Travertine Deposit (Martini and Wilson, 1998).
