He boasts extensive gold and platinum mining experience, having joined Implats in 2005 as a senior mine manager and soon advancing to oversee a number of the Rustenburg shaft complexes as GM.
During his tenure with the company, Ndlala also served as the head of technical services, leading the company’s engineering, planning, ventilation, rock engineering, training, safety and risk initiatives at the Rustenburg operation.
In addition to his engineering degree, Ndlala has a MBL degree from the University of South Africa and recently completed an executive development programme at the Harvard Business School in Boston, in the US.
