PGMs, investments, economic growth make headlines

Mining Weekly Editor Martin Creamer notes:

• It is imperative that government, business and labour launch a global campaign to highlight the huge importance of South Africa’s platinum group metals in the fight against climate change.
• It was right and proper of Mineral Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe to praise the major investments that South Africa’s mining companies have announced.
• South Africa as a whole must put its foot down firmly against the ongoing official tardiness that is preventing essential economic growth and employment creation.
