Place in Gauteng, South Africa
Flooded level, West Driefontein mine, South Africa. The dolomite overlying the gold reefs hosts much groundwater, giving the mines flooding problems.
West Driefontein was a South African gold mining company belonging to the Goldfields Group (now Sibanye Gold).
It lies approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) outside
. It used to be the richest gold mine in the world before it was flooded by water.
