Function / Content

This series consists of collated books of plans of Gold Mining Leases (GML). Each plan has been prepared by a licensed surveyor to show the boundaries of the claim (application), natural features, buildings and data points. Each plan has been certified by the surveyor that he had personally made the survey, and that the boundaries have been shown correctly marked on the ground in accordance with instructions to Licensed Surveyors under Act 388 of 1886. The plan has been certified as correct by the Chief Mining Warden. Any alterations to the claim have been noted on the plan. Each plan includes the Gold Mining Lease Number (where applicable), Location, Section Number, Area, Application Number and Scale. Some of the GML plans have the lease number crossed out with the word "forfeited" and a new issued lease number and date the survey plan was updated.
