Welcome to Creamer Media’s Resources Watch, a weekly video round-up of the events and people making and shaping the news in the mining industry.

This week:
AMCU will approach ConCourt if current bid for right to strike at mines where it has a majority fails

Questions are raised about government’s approach to acid mine drainage

And, South African mining’s delicate make-or-break phase outlined


The Association of Mineworkers and Construc-tion Union (AMCU) is await- ing a Labour Appeal Court judgment on representativeness and the extension of collective bargaining agreements to minority unions by an employers’ association.

The Department of Water and Sanitation’s existing treatment programme involving pumping acid mine drainage out of the Witwatersrand basin and then partially treating the water by neutralising it will not assist in alleviating the challenge in the long term

Federation for a Sustainable Environment CEO Mariette Liefferink

 

The South African mining industry’s delicate make-or-break phase has been outlined by some of the sector’s leading lights who make it clear that only give-and-gain will prevent it from losing colossal value.
