Mooi ry Pun intended. Just to prove that the hectic after-noon traffi c in Burgersfort can be beautiful. The traffi c lights that became operational (after a year?) certainly helps, but the other three still needs urgent attention!

Jubilee Platinum has announced that the company has secured an additional

R11 million as interim funding to ensure that current business development

activities and the platinum surface processing projects continue to operate at

optimum levels. The platinum surface projects, that being the Hernic tailings and locally ASA Metals’

Dilokong tailings near Burgersfort, continue to progress with the design phase having been executed and the principal engineering companies being appointed. The Company reported that progress made in project engineering has accelerated the execution programme, there-fore bringing forward the deadline for the required fi nal execution engineering drawings and possible order placement of long lead items.

The target for the platinum surface project is an estimated 4.4 million tonnes of platinum containing surface material. Furthermore current arisings are deposited onto the surface material at an estimated rate of 27 000 tonnes per month. Jubilee Platinum is considering the construction of two chrome and platinum group metals processing plants with the ca-pacity of processing surface material at a combined rate of 80 000 tonnes per month.

The company was able to complete a placing of 37, 5 million new ordinary shares and an application has been submitted for the shares to be admitted for trading on AIM and to be listed on the AltX.

Chief Executive Offi cer of Jubilee Platinum, Leon Coetzer, commented, “I am delight-ed with the progress made on our platinum surface processing projects and I am looking forward to the execution phase ahead and delivering the Company’s transformational projects.”

Jubilee Platinum is an JSE and AIM listed exploration and development company with platinum and power operations in South Africa as well as nickel, iron and copper interests in Madagascar.

The combined funds from this placing together with debt funding, on which advanced talks are taking place, along with the previously reported sale of the group’s non-platinum operational assets, will provide the necessary means for the design, construction, commis-sioning and working capital during the ramp-up phase of the South African projects.

The capital required for building both the surface platinum and chrome benefi ciation processing plant is estimated at £13.71 million, while the working capital required to bring the Platinum Surface Projects to operation and to achieve positive earnings is estimated at £3.8 million.

The target is to process 80,000 tons per month of platinum containing surface material delivering an estimated production of 42,000 ounces of PGMs in concentrate per year.

The company is of the opinion that the surface projects were robust and could comfort-ably sustain such a debt level. According to the company the ramp-up to earnings for these type of projects are very short and the projects can go from construction to full operation mode within 16 months.

2 NEWS 7 AUGUST 2015

Four lucky winners walked away with brand new laptops on Saturday 1 August 2015. They were the winners of the Siyakha Learning Lab at Tubatse Crossing Mall’s July competition.

All they had to do was register at the Learning Lab to get free access to study material, courses and internet. On 30 July a group of 10 fi nalists were drawn from the pool of entries. They were invited to attend the draw and stand a change to walk away with a brand new laptop.

On Saturday morning excitement was in the air and General Knowledge helped to draw a huge crowd in front of the Learning Lab were the draw took place.

The winners who are now the proud own-ers of brand new laptops are Paka Morogadi from Driekop, Kgothatso Shai from Burgers-fort, Kgotso Mokwena from Burgersfort and Pretty Muhlarhi from Burgersfort.

They were very excited about their new laptops and encourage everyone to make use of the free services offered at the Learn-ing Lab. They also thanked everyone at the Learning Lab for their friendly service.

Lucky winners at Learning Lab

The Department of Education is warning all schools’ principals, teachers and manage-ment teams to be alert of the criminals who are targeting schools to rob them of cash. This came to the attention of the depart-ment through principals who indicated they received calls from these criminals.One of the recipients of such calls is the Principal of a High School in Polokwane who was told that his school is in line to receive furniture and laptops from one of the sister departments at a cost of R38 460.00. A caller, Mr Dlamini indicated to the principal that the school does not pay for the material but has to pay R4230.00 for insurance. This

Paka Morogadi, Kgothatso Shai, Kgotso Mokwena and Pretty Muhlarhi with General Knowledge, Lerato Shai and Ruan Strydom from Siyakha Learning Lab.

All they had to do was register to make use of

the free services

Be warned: Crooks now targeting schools

Dlamini said the money has to be deposited to account number 9271229060 “And this must be done before 12h00 as it is urgent”. Fortunately the principal called the Depart-ment only to fi nd that there has never been such an arrangement between the Offi ce of The Premier, the Department of Education and any third party. The Department will be delivering furniture to schools starting from the end of next month and the process will never need a “middle man”. The Department is therefore requesting all the Principals to contact the relevant authori-ties at all the times should they receive these types of calls.

Supermarket robbedLast week Friday was a bad day for Choppies in Burgerfort when the business was robbed.

The Police in Burgersfort say at about 18:40 just before closing time a female employee heard a shout at the main entrance of the business.

A man with a handgun instructed everyone to lie down on their stomachs and he de-manded an employee to hand over the panic button. The employee could not do it because she dit not have it on her person.

The man then demanded she open the cash offi ce and when she refused she was as-saulted and a shot was fi red with the fi rearm. The emplyee then proceeded to open the cash offi ce and the man with the fi rearm was joined by two accomplices who packed more than R100 000 and fl ed.

At the time of going to press nobody had been arrested and the Police continue with their investigation.

The Police called on shop owners or managers the safeguard cash by banking regularly, especially at month end to keep cash levels in shops at a minimum.

Mooikloof car goes missing

Crime:

When a 28-year old man who resides in Mooikloof, Burgersfort, was busy showering last week Friday, he saw his bakkie’s lights go on through the window and that the vehicle was reversing slowly.

He thought nothing of it as he thought that maybe his colleague took the vehicle and fi n-ished his ablusions. After fi nishing in the shower, he phoned his colleague to fi nd out where the vehicle was, but his colleage told him that he did not take it. Thinking that it was maybe another vehicle, he went outside to fi nd that it was his bakkie, but the garage door was open and the bakkie gone. It is a white Nissan with registration BPF 587 L.

The value of the bakkie is about R100 00 and the Police are investigating. The Police call on the community to confi rm everything immediately when they see anything suspicious, as it may be criminals at work.

Get into the shopping beatBoxer Superstores held a very cheerful marketing campaign in the Khadima Cen-tre last week. Distributing leafl ets with the month-end

specials was fun as a brass band set the tone for shopping excitement at the local stores. Customers were quick to join in with dancing and cheering.

Career expo at Marula MineMarula Platinum Mine hosted a career expo for local schools in the area.

The event took place over two days last week.

The learners attending the event could learn more about the different types of jobs within the mining industry. Colourful displays were part of the attraction and learners could take some information leafl ets. These provide the require more information and some of the pre-requisites for certain study fi elds e.g. mathematics and physical sciences.

The schools enjoyed the visit and the per-sonal attention given at each of the sections showing a different type of job.

The displays includ-ed samples of rock and sometimes tech-nical equipment.


Youngsters cash inCalvin Prep School in Burgersfort held their entrepreneur’s day on Friday last week.

They learners set up stalls and anything from games, services like make-up and hair spraying to food was for sale.

Entrepreneurial skills development is part of the school curriculum and depending on the grade of the learners they have to draw up budgets and afterwards report back on how much profi t was made. The day was well supported by the learners not manning stalls.

Women’s Month celebrated at Diggers

The Diggers Monthly Market took place on Saturday last week.

The organisers also rang in Women’s Month with a make-up demonstration and a food and wine pairing during the course of the day. A varitey of stalls were set up and

anything from homemade jams, delicious fudge, books, beauty products, candles and event catering displays were there. This market is becoming something not to be missed! Look out for the next one in September.


After weeks of community unrest in the Greater Tubatse Municipal area talks be-tween mines, government and communities are still ongoing. A backdrop of tough economic conditions including falling commodity prices, disrupted production schedules due to community and labour unrest are all contributing towards the loss of jobs when companies are no longer profi table. On Tuesday, mining minister Ngoako Ramatlhodi partially closed Glen-core’s Optimum Coal Mine near Middelburg because government is not satisfi ed that the company complied with all legal requirements for retrenching 380 employees. The company denies this, saying it complied. Jobs for local people are one of the main causes of tension between the various players in the area. The DA has criticized the move to close Optimum Coal, calling it a “panic move” from government’s side that will only worsen the loss of employment. In discussions around the thorny issues that are seeing communities take to violent pro-tests, it has been asked whether government is not simply under pressure before next year’s election to deliver on job creation and service delivery and is now trying to force the already pressured private sector to fulfi ll what they themselves were not able to do?Platinum Gazette asked readers what they think about the whole issue.

Ms. Linda Malapane said: “Government is moving responsibility for things they should do. They will eventually blame the private sector instead of stepping up. With regards to the unrest, everyone should compromise. People should not burn the roads because we are struggling to drive there if they do”.

Mr. David Matemane said: “The local unrest will affect our economy. It is chasing away prospective investors. Government should rather give penalties and warnings, but not close the mine like they did in Middelburg. Government is under pressure because they have not properly planned service delivery. People can see they are under pressure. It is not the fi rst time. Being under pressure will let people do lots of things like shifting responsibility to the private sector to get re-elected”.

Mr. Vinny Mashabela said: “Government should not close down mines. Rather talk and fi nd solutions. It should be a partnership between government and the private sector to create jobs and infrastructure. Communi-ties must also come to the party and not burn the trucks and roads. Some of the trucks that they burn belong to our brothers. If they are not insured, how will they buy another? It is not right”.

Mr. Happy Ndlozi said: “There is a serious problem in Tubatse. The mining operators must disclose what they spend in their social labour plans (SLP). Some money is chowed by Section 21 Companies as well as the chiefs or Kgoshi’s. The unemployment prob-lem must be solved by government. People are sick and tired of empty promises. Where are the million jobs Zuma promised? People are losing confi dence and becoming angry. Government is also undermining structures like the Public Protector. Tenders are a prob-lem as well. It is not given to locals. There are no tenders and opportunities in this area. We need more training centres. I am blaming everyone including the local mayor for some of these problems. We need to address this. Mines must publish their SLP’s and show us how they are progressing. Then we can see what they are doing and how the money is being spend. We know for example there is money available in Marula’s SLP, but we think the money is being used for individuals wanting to fl y to places and do things there. The chiefs must not be involved with the mines because many don’t do development for the communities. They care only for their own pockets. Mines owned by communities should be controlled by the municipality. Communities should remember that de-mocracy does not mean destroy. Criminal elements in community protests are wrong. Government should not close mines because of SLPs. The mines are the economic fi gure or body of the country’s economy. Follow the procedures and fi nish projects on time without scaring off investors”.

Ms. Tebogo Mokgobatlou said: “Community unrest is really affecting everyone in a bad way. Closing mines is not the right way to address problems. Remember that running a business is done for profi t and mines are businesses, if they are operating at a loss it will not last and will not benefi t anyone. There should be better communication. The mines in Rustenburg are more transparent. It should be like that here. Give the people proper in-sight into the social labour plans with regular updates. Use the media. The way recruitment is done should also be more transparent. There is too much nepotism everywhere”.

Mr. Thabo Mnisi, Mr. Daniël Mampane and Mr. Tato Makofane said: “It is bad for communi-ties while this is going on. Lots of people want jobs. It is wrong to close a mine because of a social labour plan (SLP). Communities should also not block and burn the roads and buses. The government, private sector and communities must come together and everyone must be willing to compromise”.

Mnr. Schagne Strydom sê: “Die regering moet self werk skep en infrastruktuur daars-tel. Die moeilikheid is alles die government se skuld. Dis hoekom die myne swaarkry en dalk wil toemaak”.

Mr. Sipho Nzimande said: “It is not fair of government to push the private sector. There must be better communication. The private sector must show us what they are able to help with. Then we know the limits. By burning trucks there is no limits and that is not fair. We must not do that. We want to

regularly hear from the mines on the radio and in the newspaper what is happening. What is their budgets and what are they planning as well as how it is progressing. We need to know more. Government must give us a free mining qualifi cation like the Siyakha Learning Lab is giving free courses. We must have people attending a government run free mining school. Then the private sector can employee these artisans. It is a shame that people don’t benefi t more. The people must just march when they are unhappy. Don’t burn and block the roads. Government should also not close mines like the one in Middelburg. People will think government has fi lled its pockets and not they are fi ne. They don’t care anymore. It is not only the mines that should let us know what is happening. Government must publish in English and Sepedi what is happening with their plans, budgets and how that is progressing. They must not use technical language. They should write it so that everyone can un-derstand. Please, people must talk. Stop burning the roads, schools and libraries. You are killing yourself. Don’t cry afterwards if you damage what is already there”.

Local unrest and employment


Mr. BK Makofane, Mr. MJ Moime and Mr SS Makofane said: “Government must solve the problem of unemployment. Practically it is not possible for the mines to employ whole commu-nities. It must be a collective effort. Government and the private sector must come together. The mines do have SLPs. As many as possible local people should be employed and em-power people by giving tenders to local BBBEE companies. People can take their skills to the mines by registering on their vendor databases for tenders. Procurement people must engage with communities. The community unrest is caused by unclear information. We want to be informed. Publish opportunities and projects in the newspaper. Having communication is very important. There is a communication problem between the mines’ management, unions and government. Infrastructure is the responsibility of government. Government should establish leagues that can work on the ground in communities and communicate with communities because the communities take wrong decisions based on the wrong information”.

Mr. Willy Seloane said: “Government get VAT from us. The problem around here is that they should not talk about platinum prices going down. The mines must simply do things like development and employing peo-ple. I think it is fair that government expect the private sector to do the things normally expected from government. We will suffer the consequences of this mining in our area. Things like earthquakes will come and what is happening to our nature? Limpopo was the place where people went to be in nature. Mines are destroying nature and eventually the mining bosses will just leave once they are done mining and go back to Europe and Asia. What will we be left with?”

Ms. Maria Mangwana said: “Roads are poor. There are too many accidents because of it and people also don’t have jobs. Government must give roads and jobs, but the private companies must try and help them. In our area they are not giving enough people jobs. Government is however doing well by helping home based care in communities”.

Mr. Harry Khumalo said: “Government and the private sector must work together. People should start creating jobs for themselves. We expect government and companies to give us everything we want, but we must stand on our own. Everyone must talk. You should not burn others’ property. It does not work like that. The people must not just burn and disrupt. Don’t damage things”.

Ms. Dorah Meyer said: “We all struggle. They must not close the mines. They must put ideas together and maybe there can be a solution. Burning and blocking is making things worse. We are fi ghting with ourselves if we do that. The mines should also be doing more to help the communities. Communities are doing it the wrong way and government is not fulfi lling their promises. They promised people jobs. Practice what you preach”. With her is Neo Mthethwa.

Mr. Patrick Makofane said: “Production is low at the moment. I hope they will not close mines around here. Government and the private sector should work together to solve problems in the community. It is not the responsibility of one or the other to solve un-employment and put infrastructure in place, they should work together”.

Regs: Me. Maggy Masufi sê: “Dis nie goed dat myne toegemaak word nie. Communities moenie push tot op die punt waar myne later toegemaak word nie. Almal moet beter met mekaar praat. Almal moet weet alles gebeur nie oornag nie. Die regering moet ook verant-woordelikheid vat vir services wat hulle moet deliver”.

Ms. Nelly Mohlala and Ms. Dorah Malepe said: “It is not right that government is trying to force the public sector to give the things they are supposed to do. Government and the mines should talk more to fi nd a commit-ment that will benefi t everyone. Don’t close mines like the one in Middelburg. Enough is enough”.

Left: Mr. Wisky Mokgatla said: “The private sector is paying tax to government so gov-ernment must provide infrastructure for the people to be satisfi ed. If they start closing mines there will be an even higher unemploy-ment rate in South Africa. To close is not a good solution. If you burn roads and buses it is not right. People should talk and try to fi nd solutions between the private sector, gov-ernment and communities because closing mines is not the solution”.
