Investing in South Africa’s Mining and Mineral Beneficiation Sect
South Africa has a well-established infrastructure network that is geared towards the extractive industry and supports the beneficiation of minerals extracted in South Africa.
Stainless steel has become iconic of high-tech design and construction. Most stainless steels contain about 8-10% nickel. Around two-thirds of all refined nickel produced is used by the stainless steel industry. Nickel is used to make other alloys with special properties. Corrosion-resistant alloys are used in chemical plants, while ‘super
· “South Africa could partner with the other African countries on skills, infrastructure and technology when it comes to beneficiation and value add throughout the supply chain.” The economic impact of doing it ourselves – of operating all the way down the value chain – is potentially huge, especially in terms of skills and employment creation.
