🇿🇦 Alexkor v Richtersveld Community

In the Alexkor v Richtersveld Community case, the South African Constitutional Court ruled that the Richtersveld community, as the traditional owners of the land, had the right to claim compensation for the historical exploitation of their ancestral land by the state-owned mining company Alexkor. The court found that the community's rights to their land and natural resources had been violated, and that they were entitled to restitution. This landmark decision recognized the rights of indigenous communities to their ancestral lands and resources.
