  • Paper Number: 3492 MARKET DEVELOPMENT and SUPPORT of MINERAL BASED SMME’S in the NORTHERN CAPE PROVINCE
    Paper Number: 3492 MARKET DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT OF MINERAL BASED SMME’s IN THE NORTHERN CAPE PROVINCE Modiga, A., Rasmeni S.K., Mokubedi, I., and Auchterlonie, A Small Scale Mining and Beneficiation Division, Mintek, Randburg South Africa [email protected] For some time the South African government has been advocating the advancement of Small, Medium and Micro-sized Enterprises (SMMEs) through the prioritisation of entrepreneurship as the catalyst to achieving economic growth, development and self-sustainability. Mintek has undertaken a project that is aimed at supporting the SMMEs in the mining industry by researching the semi-precious gemstone mineral potential in the Northern Cape Province. The project provided training on safe mining methods and the beneficiation of the mineral resources through value-addition programmes (stone cutting and polishing as well as jewellery manufacturing) by the establishment of centres in the province. This will encourage a level of poverty alleviation in this region through the creation of employment in the small scale minerals, mining and manufacturing sector. Preliminary field investigations show that certain communities, especially in the Prieska and surrounding area, mine various types of semi-precious gemstone. Of notable importance are tiger’s eye deposits in the Prieska area, Griekwastad and Niekerkshoop. Mining is mainly seasonal and these miners lack appropriate tools and machinery to conduct mining efficiently. Most of the communities are characterised by low literacy levels and the miners have no access to financing or credit from formal financial institutions for them to finance their operational requirements. The lack of a formal or established market for the semi-precious stones such as tiger’s eye results in the exploitation of miners.

  • South Africa Yearbook 2012/13
    SOUTH AFRICA YEARBOOK 2012/13 Land and its p Land and its people Situated at the southern tip of Africa, South Africa boasts an amazing variety of natural beauty and an abundance of wildlife, birds, Land and its p plant species and mineral wealth. In addi- tion, its population comprises a unique diversity of people and cultures. The southern tip of Africa is also where archaeologists discovered 2,5-million-year- old fossils of man’s earliest ancestors, as well as 100 000-year-old remains of modern man. The land Stretching latitudinally from 22°S to 35°S and longitudinally from 17°E to 33°E, South Africa’s surface area covers 1 219 602 km2. According to Census 2011, the shift of the national boundary over the Indian Ocean in the north-east corner of KwaZulu-Natal to cater for the Isimangaliso Wetland Park led to the increase in South Africa’s land area. Physical features range from bushveld, grasslands, forests, deserts and majestic mountain peaks, to wide unspoilt beaches and coastal wetlands. The country shares common bound- aries with Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland, while the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho is landlocked by South African territory in the south-east. The 3 000-km shoreline stretching from the Mozambican border in the east to the Namibian border in the west is surrounded by the Atlantic and Indian oceans, which meet at Cape Point in the continent’s south- western corner. Prince Edward and Marion islands, annexed by South Africa in 1947, lie some 1 920 km south-east of Cape Town.
