Angelo Johnson

Angelo Johnson holds a BSc, BSc (Hons) and MSc in Environmental and Water Science and is a member of the Golden Key International Honours Society. I specialise in Hydrogeology (groundwater) with just over 4 years’ experience in the challenging consulting environment. Exploring the unknown like trying to understand the interaction between water and rocks in the earth’s crust is a passion of mine. I am currently enrolled as a PhD candidate at the University of Western Cape, aiming to improve the prediction of sustainable mine closures in SA, by conducting appropriate hydro-geochemical lab and field investigations. With specific focus on selected mining activities neighbouring our National Parks, hence the research is partly funded by SANParks under the UNDP/GEF5 project. Ultimately to mitigate/prevent mine water impacts on the environment post mine closure. Some of my hobbies are to braai and interact with people while I am attempting to make a positive contribution to science and society.
