MINING SERVICES<br />

Vezinhlanhla Mining<br />

Versatiltiy and innovation in mining.<br />

Vezinhlanhla is a 100% wholly black-owned mining<br />

contractor that combines industry-leading experience<br />

with the versatility and innovation required by mining<br />

to be sustainable for the long term.<br />

Established in 2017 as a mining contractor to service<br />

only the mining industry, Vezinhlanhla is an empowered turnkey<br />

contractor with capabilities across the underground and opencast<br />

contract-mining value chain.<br />

We provide extensive services for coal, gold, iron ore, manganese<br />

ore, chrome ore, nickel and platinum group metals (PGMs) producers,<br />

undertaking mining operations with continuous miners, roadheaders<br />

and drill and blast applications, enabling our clients to outsource<br />

according to their unique needs.<br />

Safety<br />

Vezinhlanhla’s commitment to safety, health, quality and<br />

environmental management standards means we work towards<br />

continuous improvements in risk management to better deliver<br />

project excellence.<br />

Black empowerment policy<br />

Vezinhlanhla is committed to broad-based black economic<br />

empowerment (BBBBE). It supports the government’s initiative of<br />

transformation and affirmative action policies and will continue to<br />

implement such projects where possible. Vezinhlanhla has initiated<br />

projects whereby material and equipment are sourced from black<br />

SMME companies, thus speeding up the process of empowering one<br />

of our own.<br />

Vezinhlanhla’s black-empowerment credentials ensure that our<br />

clients benefit fully in terms of the Mining Charter requirement and<br />

the contractual conditions of key minerals purchasers.<br />

Our commitment<br />

The empowerment of women, youth and disabled persons should<br />

be achieved in all aspects of works. Vezinhlanhla has more women on<br />

board to strengthen the capacity of the business.<br />

Youth will also be employed by the company in order to pass on<br />

skills to the next generation. As Vezinhlanhla grows, bursary schemes<br />

will be introduced for students to further their studies.<br />

Vezinhlanhla has developed a culture where there will be no<br />

discrimination against disabled persons, hence it will seek to find,<br />

train and employ disabled persons with potential and enthusiasm.<br />

Community development plan<br />

Vezinhlanhla's objective is to train its staff and community<br />

undergraduates from university and colleges, especially students in<br />

engineering, safety or mining. They will be given the opportunity to<br />

further their studies in their chosen field at Vezinhlanhla.<br />
