The atlas brings together the relevant biodiversity data in a format that enables both mining companies and regulators to be better informed during their planning and decision-making processes. The atlas identifies key wetland landscapes in the study area that are particularly important or irreplaceable in terms of biodiversity, water resource management and other ecosystem services.

The atlas is published by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and is available to the public. Please note that the WRC requires members of the public to register with their knowledge hub in order to access any publications.
