<strong>12A</strong>.2 Explanatory Notes for Table <strong>12A</strong>.2<br />
Restricted<br />
Range<br />
The following table, Table <strong>12A</strong>.2 presents the full species list recorded at the mine, for the taxonomic groups<br />
covered in the <strong>Mine</strong> Baseline (Social and Environmental Baseline Studies); namely mammals, birds,<br />
amphibians, reptiles, fish and plants.<br />
There have been some taxonomic changes since this list was finalised (in 2010), especially for plants. The<br />
preliminary species list in Table <strong>12A</strong>.1 is in accordance with the latest taxonomy, but this list retains the<br />
taxonomy used in the <strong>Mine</strong> Baseline (SEBS).<br />
