To attain this end, a qualitative research paradigm was instituted for both data collection and analysis. The\nfindings of this study concur with the literature, that there are indeed plenty of prospects available to small scale mining\nentrepreneurs. However, the most outstanding prospects was free training and funding. Nonetheless, the receptiveness\nof these prospects is somehow conditional.
