KZN Premier Sihle Zikalala said it was concerning that, in the wake of the looming third wave, there were so many gathered at one spot, not maintaining social distancing and not wearing masks.

DURBAN - The KZN government has expressed concern, following viral videos and images, over people flocking to the KwaZulu-Natal town of Ladysmith in search of diamonds - while flouting Covid-19 safety protocols.

“This could prove to be a super-spreader and might put at risk many people, including those who are not part of the mining,” Zikalala said.He said there were people coming from neighbouring provinces and towns and, if not brought under control, this could result in chaos and a possible stampede. At the weekend, apparent illegal miners in the area stumbled across clear stones resembling diamonds while digging at mining sites.
