  1. VOTE 32 MINERAL RESOURCES BUDGET AND PROVINCIAL BUDGET 2011/12 Lwazi Mahlangu Parliament Research Unit 22 March 2011

  2. Overview • Contextual Background • Vote 32: National Budget • Provincial Budgets • Key Issues for Consideration by Parliament

  3. 1. Contextual Background • South Africa (a world leader) boasts an abundance of mineral resources, producing and owning a significant proportion of the world's minerals • The state is custodian over the country's mineral resources and ownership, access and opportunity to the country's mineral resources are regulated by the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act of 2002 • 90% of the platinum metals on Earth, 80% of the manganese, 73% of the chrome, 45% of the vanadium and 41% of the gold. • Precious metals contributes 65% to the country's mineral export earnings • The country supplies about 80% of the world's platinum • Mining industry is also South Africa's biggest employer, with around 460 000 employees and another 400 000 employed by the suppliers of goods and services to the industry

  4. NGP sets a target of 5 million by 2020. Mining sector projects 140 000 jobs by 2020 and 200 000 by 2030 (averaging 15 556 per annum till 2020) 40 000 jobs were lost during the crisis

  5. SA's share of world reserves & production

  6. Cont. Transformation • 70% of the mining industry's labour force is black, while less than 5% of managerial positions are held by black people. • Future targets in the mining industry the transfer of 26% of mining assets to black-owned companies, and ensuring that 51% of future mining projects are controlled by black-owned firms. Role Players and other developments • BHP Billiton • Anglo American Plc (subsidieries include Anglo Platinum, Anglo Coal, Impala Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore) • De Beers • Rio Tinto • Tata Steel (carbon ferrochrome)

  7. 2. Vote 32: National Budget

  8. Summary Overall Budget • Department received R1.0 billion, which is 0.21 per cent of the total appropriation by vote in the 2011/12 financial year • 56.7% allocated for current payments • R438.4 million or 42.3% allocated to Transfers and subsidies • 1% allocated to Capex Programmes of the Department R (Million) Percentage • Administration 247.9 23.5% • Promotion of Mine Safety and Health 147.5 14.2% • Mineral Regulation 160.4 15.5% • Mineral Policy and Promotion 480.4 46.4% TOTAL 1 036.2 100.0%

  9. 3. Provincial Budgets Eastern Cape Province

  10. Some Facts and Figures • The provincial economy is dominated by the export-led automotive-sector manufacturing and by the tertiary sector. This makes our economy especially vulnerable to international market fluctuations. • During the year 2010/11, Coega appointed 82 interns, supported 53 intern placements with consultants, and trained a total of 6 826 people. • R34,9 million allocated to LED projects was directed towards the establishment of sustainable industries and settlements in the under-developed rural parts of the province. Unfortunately, due to non-compliance on the part of local municipalities, much of this money has not been disbursed. • Loan funding extended by the ECDC secured a further 1 700 jobs, primarily in the OR Tambo Region. The bulk were in the Services and Manufacturing sectors, with 704 and 385 jobs respectively. • High Impact Priority Projects at the ECDC being proposed, with R113 million worth of projects being piloted, R362 million worth of projects undergoing scoping, and R2.03 billion worth of projects under implementation. • Mining exploration accounts for a further R1.5 billion of pipeline projects. The job potential of these projects is estimated to be around 4 500.

  11. Mining Issues/Facts • IDC (has a 10% stake) in Kalagadi Manganese - committed a R3.5 billion towards the implementation of the Kalagadi mining project (BEE company) • Kalagadi Manganese is in the process of establishing an integrated operation encompassing mining, ore processing (sinter plant), as well as a smelter. The total capital outlay to implement the project is estimated at R11 billion. • The mining and ore processing operations are located in the Northern Cape Province, while the smelter operation will be located in the Coega IDZ in the Eastern Cape. (production of the first sintered product in July 2012) • Shareholders have committed to fund R4.5 billion. A further R6.5 billion will be raised from the various Developmental Finance Institutions and commercial banks. • In addition, a 320,000 tons per annum ferromanganese alloy production facility is to be constructed at Coega in the Eastern Cape. Ferromanganese is an essential ingredient in the production of steel, a commodity expected to show good growth in the next decade.

  12. Budget Allocation

  13. Free State Province

  14. Free State Provincial economy is performing below national average. Growth in 2010 in the provincial economy was 1.9% and it is projected at 2.4% in 2011. The province’s major contributions to the provincial economy come from finance, real estate and other business services. Boasts of the largest gold-mining complex - the Free State Consolidated Goldfields, with a mining area of 32 918 hectares. About 82% of the province’s mineral production is derived from gold mining, with gold mines also supplying silver and considerable concentrations of uranium Twelve gold mines operate from the towns of Welkom, Virginia and Odendaalsrus in the province and roughly 30% of South Africa’s gold is obtained from this region, ranked fifth in the world in gold production. Some Facts and Figures

  15. Cont. • Unemployment increased from 21.9 % in Q4 2008 to 24% Q4 2010 • Need to work more closely and decisively with the private sector to expand and develop production and the value chain in the agriculture, mining, manufacturing, tourism, trade and services. • In mining in the province (Welkom) must take advantage of the current favourable increase in commodity prices. • Large deposits of coal and the country’s largest deposits of bentonite are also found in the Fezile Dabi district. This bituminous coal is converted into petrochemicals at Sasolburg.

(170% increase) • MTEF estimates of provincial economic growth 3%- 3.5% falling short of required RSA 7% p.a for a prolonged period. • The mining and quarrying sector accounts for less than 2% of provincial gross domestic product (PGDP) but the province’s mineral sands and beneficiation plants are important to the nation’s minerals sector • KwaZulu-Natal is home to two aluminium smelters (in Richards Bay), three steel plants, a manganese smelter and four concrete factories. • Richards Bay Minerals supplies the world with about 25% of its demand. It has extensive ore holdings along the coast and is the largest titanium slag producer in the world. • KZN Sands (an Exxaro subsidiary) is the other major mineral company operating in the uThungulu district. It focuses on smelting ilemnite to produce titanium slag

  20. Northern KwaZulu-Natal’s coalfields are being revived Miranda Minerals has several projects at different stages of development focusing on the Klip River coalfields around Dundee and Glencoe. Awaiting the results of the EIA on Burnside area and resources of 35.5 million tons have been indicated and inferred. If Burnside is approved, mining is expected to begin in the last quarter of 2011. Small scale gold mining in the Umzinto goldfield’s several sites Carbonates from three large quarries around the Marble Delta Formation inland from Port Shepstone. High grade material is used as filler in paint, paper, toothpaste, bread and plastic; lower-grade material is used in rubber, glass and fiberglass and the third quarry provides limestone for the major NPC-Cimpor cement plant nearby. Cont.

Human resource training and development Bursaries - approximately R72 million on external bursaries and R19 million on internal bursaries for the 2011/12 FY Learnerships and Internships Interns and learners should constitute 5% of the total staff establishment of a department.
