Deep Yellow Limited, together with its subsidiary Reptile Mineral Resources and Exploration (Pty) Ltd (RMR), demonstrated its commitment to safety in remote areas through the donation of two Garmin inReach Mini 2 satellite communications devices valued at N$17 680 to improve the safety of those involved, especially students working in remote areas such as the Gobabeb Training and Research Center (GTRC), known for its desert research.
The donation ensures that people in remote regions have reliable means of communication to meet security needs.
