Mototolo

Mototolo is a platinum-group metals mine located in Limpopo province, South Africa. The operation extracts PGMs from the Bushveld Complex, one of the world's most significant platinum-bearing geological formations. The mine is situated in a region known for its concentration of platinum mining activity, alongside other operations including Modikwa and facilities in the Amandelbult area. Mototolo produces platinum, palladium, rhodium and other platinum-group metals, which are used in automotive catalytic converters, jewellery and industrial applications. The operation processes ore through conventional underground mining methods, with concentrates typically sent to smelting and refining facilities for final metal recovery. Ownership and operational control of Mototolo has changed hands over the years as part of broader consolidation and restructuring within South Africa's platinum sector. The mine contributes to Limpopo's position as a major platinum-producing province and to South Africa's dominance in global PGM supply. Production levels and operational status are influenced by platinum prices, labour costs and electricity supply challenges common to the South African mining industry. Mototolo remains an active contributor to the country's platinum output and export earnings.
