 Article Headline: A brief look at SA’s coal-mining industry
 Abstract: Most coal production in South Africa - about 53% - is from opencast mines, with the balance being produced by bord-and-pillar (40%), stoping (4%) and longwall mining (3%). Coal mining operations are clustered in the country’s Mpumalanga province, accounting for over 84% of South Africa’s coal production. The remaining output comes from the Limpopo province’s two operating mines - Grootgeluk in the Waterberg coalfield and Tshikondeni in the Soutpansberg coalfield, the Free State’s New Vaal and Sigma collieries, and KwaZulu-Natal’s six anthracite operations.
