Research Licence

Effective from 16 October 2026. Contact: admin@mckallip.co.za

1. What the licence is

When you buy a report from McKallip Mineral Research, a trading name of Akwande Projex (Pty) Ltd (registration number 2021/669772/07) you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use it for your own professional research, on the terms below. You do not own the report or its copyright. The licence continues until it ends under section 8.

2. Single reader licence

One named person may use the report. A single reader licence cannot be shared or passed on.

3. Team licence

The purchasing organisation receives the number of reader seats it bought, for its internal professional research. The purchaser counts as one seat. The purchaser invites colleagues by email address, and can remove them, in the licence's team page. Each seat is for a named person in that organisation and cannot be shared or passed on outside it. Everyone with a seat can read the report and work in shared drafts on that licence. A person gets access by signing in with the email address that was invited.

4. What you may do

• Read the report online and keep your own highlights, notes and drafts.
• Download the watermarked PDF. Each authorised reader may download the PDF once. We may change this allowance in future, and will tell licence holders if we do.
• Quote short extracts with credit, as set out in Copyright and Permitted Use.
• Use the findings in your own internal analysis and advice.
• Use the data pages (the plant & capacity register and the legislation tracker) while your licence is active.

5. What you may not do

• Resell, sub-license, lend or give the report, in whole or in part, to anyone outside your licence.
• Post it publicly or upload it to a shared site, repository or artificial-intelligence tool or model.
• Remove or alter watermarks, notices or licence details.
• Share your sign-in or let anyone else use your seat.
• Use the report or the data pages to build a competing product or service.

6. Watermarking and records

Every PDF and exported draft carries the reader's name or email, the licence and the date, and we keep a record of PDF downloads (the account, licence, report, time, a hashed form of the internet address, and the browser). We use these to protect the report and to trace leaked copies. See the Privacy Policy.

7. Updates and corrections

You may read later editions of the same report at no extra charge, and we tell licence holders when one is published. Older editions may be withdrawn. See the Corrections Policy.

8. Ending the licence

We may suspend or end a licence if you break it, or if an invoice for it stays unpaid after written notice; ending or suspending it does not cancel any amount you owe. A licence also ends if the order is cancelled or refunded under the Refund Policy. When a licence ends your right to use the report, the PDF copy and the paid features ends. You must stop using the report and delete your copies. Sections 5, 6 and 9 continue after the licence ends.

9. Liability

The report is provided under our Research Disclaimer and the limits on liability in the Terms of Use, which apply to this licence. Nothing limits any liability the law does not allow us to limit.
