The objective of the MMSD southern African Regional Project (MMSD SOUTHERN AFRICA) is to identify how the mining and minerals sector can best contribute to the Southern African transition to sustainable development. The objective of this study is to determine how the mining and minerals sector can best contribute to the Southern African regional transition to sustainable development in terms of economic development. The research team comprised staff members of the School of Mining Engineering, at the University of the Witwatersrand and include Dr FT Cawood, Mr AS Macfarlane and Professor RCA Minnitt (Research Coordinator). Mr Sam Kangwa of the Copperbelt University, Kitwe, Zambia was subcontracted to undertake an analysis of the Privatisation of Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines. TERMS OF REFERENCE The terms of reference for this research topic are separated into three specific topics dealt with by individual researchers as follows: AS Macfarlane: Review, using existing knowledge, the contribution of the mining and minerals sector to economic development in Southern Africa, paying particular attention to the progression of development from primary to tertiary activities and the linkage between managing mineral wealth and social development. This portion is largely descriptive and is focused on the current state of affairs. FT Cawood: Identify approaches and strategies used by various role players in aligning the economic contribution of the mining and minerals sector with sustainable economies in the region. Comment on the potential for the sector to play a role in poverty alleviation/eradication including an evaluation of best 3 practice with respect to the use of mineral rents/funds captured by government. Compare to international experience wherever appropriate. S Kangwa: A case study on the privatisation of Zambia Consolidated Copper Mines (ZCCM) will be used for this section. RCA Minnitt: Identify guidelines, methods, principles and governance arrangements that can improve and help ensure the sector’s contribution to sustainable economic development. Include recommendations on key roles and responsibilities of role players. Use will be made of best and worst practice case studies. Lessons learnt from these case studies will be extracted and synthesized so that the mining and minerals sector in the region can improve future performance. 4 1.

South Africa. [email protected] Tel. +27-11-717-7417 5 The contribution of the mining and minerals sector to the economic development of Southern Africa. Alastair Macfarlane Summary This report summarises the contribution that the minerals industry has made to the economic development of Southern Africa, by analyzing the activity and environment, predominantly over the last nine to ten years. The report identifies that sustainable development of the industry relies on its economic success, to generate sufficient wealth from the mineral rents to satisfy the requirements of the owners, as well as satisfying the requirements for capital generation, for reinvestment in project and social capital. It is clear that this can only be achieved through capital investment and operational success, and that this only happens when the climate for investment is favourable. In Southern African countries, there is a very clear linkage between political and social stability, and capital investment from global institutions. This stability must be

    Mortimer Hays-Brandeis Traveling Fellowship Final Report, Hrvoje Slovene House Secrets: Industrial Tales in one of the World's Most Contaminated Cities: Kabwe, Zambia For the past five years, my primary focus in photography has been to document abandoned, nineteenth-century factories and industrial spaces, as well as to show the irreparable damage modem industrialism has had on the global environment and its population. By photographing the devastating effects on local neighborhoods wrought by factories and industry, my intention has been to show how seemingly isolated problems have contributed to the global environmental crisis we are witnessing today. To date this project has taken me to Manchester, England-the birthplace of the industrial revolution; to Cleveland, Ohio; and Zagreb, Croatia. With the generous help of the Mortimer Hays- Brandeis Traveling Fellowship, I expanded this project to include Kabwe, Zambia. The mining of lead there by a Chinese-based company continues to put the population of hundreds of thousands at serious risk. Through my photographs, I showed the impact of modem industrialism on the real, day-to-day experiences of people and their industrialized habitats. Although my original intention was to visit and document the effects oflead pollution in Kabwe, Zambia; Linfen, China; and Dzerzhinsk, Russia, I found a plethora of material in Zambia, and spent the majority of my time there. I first visited Kabwe in June 2007 and stayed there for three months. During that time I got in touch with local NGOs and familiarized myself with their work on the field. During that time I also became aware of the scale of the lead pollution problem on the location.

The sector comprises several of the world’s largest diversified resource companies, including global giants such as BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto, as well as a representation of potential future industry leaders in the mid-tier producers and junior miners. The sector has always been reliant on equity markets to provide the funding required for the capital intensive development of mineral projects or the funding of higher risk exploration to locate new deposits. Investors in the Australian market have supported over 290 new junior resource floats since 2009.

  • In-Depth-Report on Bougainville Copper Ltd
    Bougainville Copper, BOC.AX, ISIN PG0008526520 17 December, 2007 Bougainville Copper Radically rethinking one of the world’s most complex corporate situations! • Civil war shut down Bougainville Copper’s mine and led to the share price falling by 98%. What was once the largest privately financed industrial project in the world, subsequently lay dormant for 18 years. However, the company remained listed in Sydney, New York and Frankfurt. • The share price recently surged to 27% of its pre-closure level. Does the market anticipate tangible progress towards reopening the mine? • This report sets out why Bougainville Copper’s management is likely to soon unveil a radically new approach for restarting mining on the mineral-rich island, Bougainville. Key amongst these factors are technologies that simply didn’t exist 20 years ago, or which weren’t economically feasible at the time. Almost as a mere side-effect, these technologies will also provide a huge boost to the company’s metal reserves, thanks to previously uneconomic copper turning out to nowadays be a financially viable mining prospect. The company’s mineable copper and gold reserves are likely to ultimately be a multiple of what they had been thought to be up until now. • The management recently hinted at a comprehensive 3-year plan to return to mining and exploration on Bougainville. This action plan will act as a catalyst to close the gap between the low share price and the much higher intrinsic value. The share is likely to first catch up with the proven metal value of the existing mine. During a second phase, Bougainville Copper should have not just one, but several mining and exploration projects operating.
