Academic calls for better research on mine water

Tshwane University of Technology mine water management research chair Dr Chris Wolkersdorfer has called on South African scientific researchers to conduct proper literature studies and improve the overall standard of their research in relation to mine water management matters. Speaking at the Council for Geoscience’s 2016 conference on Friday he decried “poor quality” research papers being submitted by not only students but also by a number of his peers. He also alleged that plagiarism was a widespread problem among local students and researchers.
