            <description><![CDATA[Imagine training for four years. Early mornings, physical labour, classroom theory, practical assessments, and thousands of hours of hands-on experience. Then imagine passing your trade test – only to discover that your career is placed on hold because your Red Seal certificate never arrives. For thousands of South African artisans, that is the reality. The nationally recognised Red Seal certificate unlocks better pay, formal employment, professional recognition and opportunities across borders. Yet many qualified artisans wait months – and sometimes years – to receive it.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[For more than a decade, the argument for investing in better agitation in gold processing was a defensive one: spend now to protect your margins while the gold price keeps falling. That argument no longer holds. Gold climbed to record highs near $5 600/oz in early 2026 and has stayed well above $4 000/oz, more than three times its 2013 level. The priority has shifted with the price. The question is no longer only how to lower the cost per ounce. It is how to recover every ounce held in ore that ...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Mining has always been about finding value underground. Africa’s next challenge is keeping far more of that value above ground. Africa’s mining challenge is no longer geological — it is about capturing more value. The continent’s mineral wealth is beyond question: what remains underdeveloped is how much of that value is retained here rather than realised elsewhere. Real pressures persist: exploration investment is constrained, regulatory environments are uncertain, infrastructure gaps endure and responsible-sourcing expectations keep rising. But alongside these pressures sits an opportunity that attracts far less focus: the value created after the ore leaves the mine.]]></description>

The company’s scientific approach to the dynamics of bulk materials handling at transfer points has been ﬁne-tuned over decades of experience, with its success demonstrated in over 5 000 chutes installed globally.  A key principle at the heart of Weba designs is controlled ﬂow, ensuring longer wear life of chutes and components, more uptime, less dust and less noise. Chute solutions are conﬁ- gured to control the direction, ﬂow and velocity of the required volume and type of material. With this customised approach, technical teams analyse the speciﬁcs of application including through-put requirements, the material’s size and shape, and the belt’s width and speed. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[From community-based recruiting and verification to onsite onboarding support and post-employment administration, specialist human capital services provider to the mining sector TEBA positions its services to reduce workforce risk and improve operational readiness for mines and contractors across Southern Africa.  Mining human resource (HR) leaders are under constant pressure to recruit and screen qualified personnel quickly, maintain compliance with social and labour plans (SLPs) and other legal requirements, support legal appointees in meeting their responsibilities, and protect sites from work stoppages. HR teams are also increasingly expected to shape post-employment strategies that extend beyond the mining permit area and life of mine, including benefits administration, compensation claims, health support and social services for employees and their families. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[With the investment environment in South Africa having improved quite dramatically over the last few years, the country’s well-endowed resource base is sure to benefit from more capital in exploration and beneficiation, according to diversified mining and minerals company African Rainbow Minerals (ARM). Having sponsored the sixth South Africa Investment Conference on March 31, ARM COO Jacques van der Bijl took the opportunity to tell Mining Weekly about the value of investment in South Africa’s mining sector.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Since Level 9 vehicle intervention for collision avoidance became mandatory on South African mines in 2022, mine safety equipment manufacturer Booyco Electronics has continued to lead the way in proximity detection system (PDS) technology and implementation. Despite the availability of mature and proven technology, industry-wide adoption has been slower than anticipated, primarily owing to limited operational readiness rather than technical constraints. The Level 9 requirements enforce automatic vehicle slowdown or stopping through engineering controls on trackless mining machines, preventing machine-to-pedestrian and machine-to-machine collisions. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[The future of African mining will not be defined solely by how much the continent can extract, but by what it builds, retains and passes on through value creation, says MetCon MD Grant Crosse. One of the most advanced precious-metals refineries in South Africa, the company recently hosted its annual MineShift event at the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, ahead of the Investing in African Mining Indaba, in Cape Town, which Crosse described as strategic and deliberate. The event is designed to shape the week’s agenda before conversations turn fully to capital allocation, policy direction and upstream production. While Mining Indaba traditionally focuses on extraction and investment flows, MineShift positions beneficiation and downstream participation as foundational – not secondary – to Africa’s mining future.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[In mining and exploration, performance is measured in outcomes — metres drilled, uptime maintained and programmes delivered safely and efficiently. In some of the world’s most demanding environments, particularly across Africa, contractors are increasingly looking beyond brand names alone and focusing on capability, engineering depth and long-term reliability. This is where drilling equipment supplier Feaver Group has carved out its position. By combining the global manufacturing strength of Hyundai Everdigm drilling rigs with the Australian-engineered precision of Feaver Tools, Feaver Group delivers drilling solutions that are purpose-built for real-world conditions, engineered to perform in remote and demanding environments. “Simply better isn’t a slogan for us,” says Feaver Group Australia MD Richard Stickland. “It’s about building equipment that works harder, lasts longer, is reliable when it matters, and is supported by people who actually understand drilling.”]]></description>
