Study: Tendele coal mine relocation compensation covers under 5% of losses

A new university study alleges that families relocated for the Tendele coal mine in rural KwaZulu-Natal received less than 5% of their real losses, indicating systemic under-compensation. The claim is based on academic research and is not yet independently verified. This matters as it highlights potential human rights and legal failures in South Africa's mining compensation framework.
