  • THRIP Annual Report 20152016.Pdf
    The International Year of Pulses The International Year of Pulses 2016 aims to heighten public awareness of the nutritional benefits of pulses as part of sustainable food production aimed towards food security and nutrition. The Year will create a unique opportunity to encourage connections throughout the food chain that would better utilize pulse-based proteins, further global production of pulses, better utilize crop rotations and address the challenges in the trade of pulses. PULSES CONTRIBUTE TO FOOD SECURITY Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food which meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Food insecurity is a major issue for many people and households in poor and developing countries — it is estimated that 795 million people are undernourished. Pulses can help contribute to food security in a number of ways.

  • 1 Legislation, Performance Standards and the Dingleton Resettlement Dr
    Legislation, Performance Standards and the Dingleton Resettlement Dr Gwendolyn Wellmann [email protected] www.gwendolynwellmann.com Abstract During the recent two decades, resettlement in South Africa has changed significantly, and whilst the country does not at this time have a national resettlement policy or a law specifically addressing resettlement, the process is supposed to be in accordance with the Constitution of South Africa and the country’s legal framework. On occasion, a private sector implementer will claim to adhere to international performance standards and policies of the International Finance Corporation (IFC). In December 2007, AngloAmerican Kumba Iron Ore announced that it will relocate the Dingleton town to another location, and the first group of Dingleton residents were resettled to temporary accommodation in late 2014. As of March 2021, the process is ongoing with at least 50 households still in temporary accommodation with no real end to the resettlement in sight, with the company suing resettled persons for rental in arrears for accommodation provided for them in company housing post-resettlement, with mediation and arbitration processes also ongoing for other cases. Background Dingleton was a town located adjacent to the Sishen Iron Ore mine, which is located near Kathu in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa. Sishen Iron Ore belongs to Anglo American subsidiary, Kumba Iron Ore. The town of Sishen was built in the early 1950s by the then state-owned mining company Iron and Steel Corporation (ISCOR), which was founded by the South African government in 1928. In 1989, ISCOR became the first South African state-owned entity to be privatized in a R3.7 billion deal that led to its listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange at R2 a share.

  • Mining & Water Risk Management Case Study: Exxaro Resources Ltd
    Mining & Water Risk Management Case Study: Exxaro Resources Ltd. Carly Fink Research Scholar Center for Sustainable Business June 2016 The Challenge Freshwater scarcity threatens numerous industries across the globe, including the metals and mining sector. Water is used in numerous activities in mining, from processing and dust suppression to transport. The sector is therefore highly dependent on a consistent supply of water. Yet, the need for adequate quality and high volumes, along with the resulting pollution from operations, expose the sector to numerous water-related risks. Further, many of the world’s mining reserves are located in water-scarce regions, such as Chile, South Africa, and the Middle East, where corporations compete with municipal, agricultural, and industrial demands. Conflicting demands for water can lead to temporary plant shutdowns or in worst case scenarios, loss of the license to operate, resulting in stranded assets and significant financial repercussions.1 According to the CDP, one third of reporting metals and mining companies had operations in regions of high water scarcity or water stress in 2013.2 92% of respondents also reported exposure to water risks that have the potential to impact their business now or within the next five years.3 Already, companies are experiencing physical, regulatory, financial, and reputational risks related to water that threaten their growth and license to operate. In 2015, almost two-thirds of companies in the materials sector reported experiencing detrimental water-related impacts. The top reported impacts were higher operating costs, transport disruption, and plant/production disrupt that led to reduced output. These disruptions have resulted in reduced CAPEX, lower revenues, increased operating costs, and reduced shareholder value.4 In fact, companies reported losses as high as 6.5% of EBITDA (FY 2011).5 As one of the most water- intensive industries, future mining growth depends on securing a stable supply.

  • Productivity Growth in the South African Coal Mining Industry : 1950 - 1980
    PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH IN THE SOUTH AFRICAN COAL MINING INDUSTRY : 1950 - 1980 ROBERT ARTHUR JONES A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Commerce, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilm ent.of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Johannesburg, 1983 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this thesis is my own unaided work and has not been previously submitted, in part or in whole, for a degree at any other U niversity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the willing co­ operation received from many people directly and indirectly connected with the coal mining industry in South Africa. During the course of my research I have visited twenty six collieries, five ESCOM power stations, 1SC0R, SASOL, and innumerable private firms including manufacturers of mining machinery. I have persistently bothered the personnel of the Economics Department of the Reserve Bank, Department of Mineral and Energy A ffa irs , Minerals Bureau, Chamber of Mines, Fuel Research Institute, and the different mining houses and marketing organisations with a wide range of queries and requests for statistics and information. I have attended seminars, participated in training sessions, and sat in on management meetings. I have talked to mine managers, miners, artisans, machine operators, engineers, geologists, training personnel and trade-uni on officials. At all times my brief has been to ask questions, listen, observe and learn. I mention no names in particular for that would be odious to those I omit. They have c o lle c tiv e ly moulded my knowledge. I thank them a ll. I g ra te fu lly acknowledge a bursary from the Human Sciences Research Council which fa c ilita te d my investigations.
