            <description><![CDATA[JSE-listed Copper 360 advises that the incline at the Rietberg underground mine, in the Northern Cape, has intersected copper sulphide mineralisation about 16 m before reaching the planned 300 Level (300L) elevation. This is earlier than expected from the company’s geological model and could represent a new mineralised body, it highlights.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Valterra Platinum is nearing a decision that’s likely to take the world’s largest platinum mine underground. Mogalakwena — half way along the road from South Africa’s capital Pretoria to the Zimbabwe border — is the company’s flagship asset, with more than eight decades of reserves remaining. But as ore grades decline in its open pits and mining the material becomes more expensive, Valterra is exploring deep beneath the surface.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Diversified miner Rio Tinto said on Wednesday it was on track to release about $5-billion in capital by the end of 2026, after strong mine performance helped lift third-quarter iron-ore sales from its Pilbara operations above market expectations.

The world's largest iron-ore producer sold 85.7-million metric tons of the steel-making commodity from Pilbara in the quarter ended September 30, up 2% from a year earlier and ahead of a Visible Alpha consensus estimate of 84.41-million tons.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[As demand for critical minerals continues to grow amid a global energy transition, Southern Africa’s abundance of minerals, including copper, cobalt and lithium, offers opportunities to establish industrial linkages across mining, processing, manufacturing and services. The regional challenge, however, is translating mineral endowment into commercially competitive value chains that retain greater value, generate jobs and connect enterprises across member States in the Southern African Development Community (SADC).]]></description>
