Exxaro Resources has joined the growing list of South African enterprises that have chosen Spatial Dimension to implement an enterprise mineral rights management solution based on FlexiCadastre*.
FlexiCadastre will assist the JSE-listed diversified mining company to manage its obligations to the Department of Mineral Resources and to navigate the complexity of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (MPRDA).
During the initial implementation project, Spatial Dimension will work with Exxaro’s team to integrate their business processes, data and reports. This will initially focus on prospecting rights, mining rights and land assets.
“Exxaro foresees that the implementation of FlexiCadastre will greatly enhance the day-day management of the tenure administration process and assist to ensure that Exxaro is compliant in regard to timely legal reporting”, said Henk Lingenfelder, Exxaro’s Group Manager Geoscience.
“Our scalable mineral rights management solution will also facilitate Exxaro’s growth into other jurisdictions as needed,” said Nick Holleman, Spatial Dimension’s Project Manager for Exxaro.
