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:
Equipment manufacturer Joest exceeds the Mining Charter target as it sells 30% to a black consortium.
And, there’s a call for jobless mining engineer graduates to spearhead the research revolution.

Local vibrating equipment manufacturer Joest has entered into an agreement with black-owned consortium Vhatsila Holdings to form Joest Kwatani. The agreement sees Vhatsila Holdings acquiring a 30% stakeholding in the company, making Joest Kwatani the first in its class to exceed the requirements of the Mining Charter.

Joest Kwatani MD Kim Schoepflin

A call has been made for the current surfeit of highly trained but jobless South African mining engineering university graduates to be directed towards spearheading a research revolution involving the creation of mining clusters that have agriculture on waste mine land and mineral recovery from slimes dams as their economic underpin.

Veteran mining research commentator Dr RE (Robbie) Robinson
