Storm Mountain Diamonds (PTY) Ltd will tomorrow hand over a health post and five two-roomed houses to Nqoe community council at its Kao mine in Mokhotlong district.
The sustainability coordinator of Storm Mountain Diamonds (PTY) Ltd, Thuso Mosabala, said the mine was supporting Kao and other surrounding villagers through its corporate social responsibility programme.
Mosabala said the post is in support of the United Nations sustainable development goal 3 which seeks to promote good health and wellbeing.
“There is currently no health facility in Kao where villagers walk between 15 and 20km to the nearest health facility at Rampai village for medical help,” he noted.
The houses would help the Nqoe community council to generate income for its operations through rentals, he added.
