Jessica,
I have a few maps that mention Witwatersrand in the PSU catalog. Happy to scan anything.
One is gold land holdings. Images attached.
There are two sets out there. The 1:250,000 can be seen on
this awesome site from the Colorado School of Mines and the map scans are from UT-Austin.
There is a 1:50,000 set out there that Harvard has quite a few
sheets from. I have included our index for that set to help you.
Regards,

Hi All,
We have a student looking at refuse piles in the Witwatersrand Gold Mining area in
Johannesburg South Africa, specifically the Langlaagte dump, Crown Mine Dump, or Top Star Dump.
Do any of you have maps of these areas or know who might? Or know if there are sources
of reports on gold mining in the region today or historically?
Jessica
