FOCUS<br />
De Beers Venetia Mine<br />
Community Development<br />
A partner in poverty alleviation and job creation.<br />
Venetia Mine lies approximately 80km west of Musina and<br />
36km north-east of Alldays in the <strong>Limpopo</strong> Province. The<br />
mine is located in the Musina Local Municipality of the Vhembe<br />
District, off the R521 road between Alldays and Pondrift,<br />
approximately 540km north of Johannesburg. The majority of the mine<br />
employees are from the Blouberg and Musina municipalities, which<br />
are therefore its primary labour sending areas.<br />
A total of 40% of the workforce comes from Musina while 21% of the<br />
workers come from Blouberg, with a further 15% coming from other<br />
parts of <strong>Limpopo</strong> and the balance from further afield.<br />
The Mine Community Development Programme for Venetia Mine<br />
is based on De Beers Consolidated Mine’s Community Development<br />
strategy and the Venetia Mine Socio-Economic Assessment, which<br />
focused on the possible impacts that Venetia Mine would have on the<br />
communities of Vhembe and Capricorn District Municipalities, and<br />
more specifically the two host municipal areas, Blouberg and Musina.<br />
The programme is integrated<br />
with the Integrated Development<br />
Plans (IDPs) of the Blouberg and<br />
Musina municipalities and demonstrates<br />
a commitment to the<br />
sustainable upliftment of these<br />
communities.<br />
The legacy of Venetia Mine<br />
will stretch over and above the<br />
direct economic benefits that<br />
the mine will bring to the region.<br />
Venetia Mine aims to become<br />
fully integrated within the local<br />
communities and to be a partner<br />
in poverty alleviation and job<br />
creation.<br />
