Description
Mrs Teleki is one of the community members from Mantjekane who lost 3 goats and 1 cow on 14/08/2014. When asked about the test that the mine told the community,the granny said she never attended any meeting with the mine and the last time she tried to communicate with the mine it was in November 2016 where she found her cow at the mine stream, the cow was weak and she went to the mine security but they told her to take the cow home. And from that day she felt disappointed as when she went to the mine it was because people told her that the mine will compensate her, so she took the cow home slaughtered it to feed her family. She lost 10 cattles and 3 goats since the mine started operating in their area.
