For the past week I have been helping out at the Optimist Selections Regatta, being hosted by the Algoa Bay Yacht Club.
Every day we travel out of the harbour past the manganese ore loading berth and the amount of manganese ore dust that has been visible whilst being loaded is SIGNIFICANTLY less than in the past.
Admittedly there have been some problems with the damping process as can be seen in the two images below.
BUT, overall Transnet need to be congratulated and encouraged as it appears that they are beginning to try and minimise the amount of manganese ore dust flying around.
Well DONE Transnet.
