In November 2016, 38 sinkholes formed due to subsurface erosion above undermined ground on Donkerhoek farm near Sasolburg. The fact that the sinkholes formed more than 24 years after mining in the area ceased, emphasised the need for a method to predict the likelihood of sinkhole formation due to s...
