  1. HOW CAN BOTSWANA CAPITALIZE ON THE MINING SECTOR TO ENSURE ECONOMIC GROWTH & DIVERSIFICATION? Bridgette Radebe EXECUTIVE CHAIRPERSON: MMAKAU MINING PRESIDENT: SOUTH AFRICAN MINING DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION (Junior Mining Chamber) Botswana Investment & Trade Conference 20-21 November 2013

  2. The African Socio-economic and Political paradigm shift and resulting economic successes • In 2011, the real GDP of Africa recovered and grew by 5.2% after increasing by 5.3% in 2004 and collapsing through 2008-2010 • From 2009 to 2011, Africa’s GDP grew at an average annual rate of about 3% • In 2011, the GDP increased by an average of 6.3% in African petroleum-exporting countries • Africa’s economy is projected to grow by 4.8% in 2013 and accelerate further to 5.3% in 2014.(AFDB- Africa Economic Outlook) • To achieve the above we need structural transformation based on natural resources to address the socio-economic and political challenges created by the resource curse. • The resource producing countries in Africa need to function under a meaningful and effective transformative legislation. • Many countries are in the process of developing such legislative frameworks, eg: • The Mineral Petroleum Resources Development Act has been used in South Africa to redress the historic socio-economic and political imbalances in the mining sector.

  3. Historically, Investments in Mining had an exploitation culture in Africa: Eg: Case Study South Africa Militant labour force fighting exploitative labour practices No black ownership Monopolistic industry in South Africa pre 1994 No royalty payments to rural communities Ghost towns Neo-colonialism

  4. Economic exclusion of the Majority – a recipe for instability Barney Bernato • Monopolistic industry • dominated by large mining houses, large-scale mining operations • No junior companies • History of legal, institutionalized exclusion of blacks and women, eg • black advancement prohibited in the following fields:(eg. certificated miners, apprentices) in the mining sector impeded by law (eg. Scheduled Persons Clause, Mines and Works Act) until 1987 • After 1987 the historic exploitation of black workers, rural communities and women in the mining industry prevailed • Unionisation and major labour uprising a daily practice • Civil unrest – the norm • Monopoly of the industry by four companies • The Junior Mining Sector stifled • Financial institutions adverse to junior mining investments • The state was not the custodian of the mineral rights hence Foreign investments stifled Godfathers of the old order gold and diamond rush in South Africa Cecil John Rhodes Ernest Oppenheimer Exclusion of Women

  5. Post 1994: Legislative TransformationMajor contributor towards paradigm shift State intervention: • Need for legislative change recognized through: • The Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act • The State became the custodian of the Mineral rights • The Mining industry liberated to the inclusion of Historically disadvantaged South Africans • Foreign direct investment flowed. • The creation of the Mining Charter and the new mining legislation became the backbone of the paradigm shift • Fair Labour Laws • Rural Communities became beneficiaries of their Mineral Wealth. Former President Nelson Mandela Opens Parliament 1997

  6. SA Mining Charter from 2004 – Creating an enabling environment in the paradigm shift • 26% equity participation in 10 years time • 40% black managers within 5 years • 10% women participation within 5 years • 100% literacy within 5 years • BEE procurement • Beneficiation • Social plan and labour plan

  7. Post 1994: The transformation march towards the paradigm shift • State becomes custodian of mineral rights • In line with international norms • Historically Disadvantaged South Africans and foreign investors get access • Growth in Junior mining companies Balancing the playing field

  8. The Mining Industry to Graduate from the following Historic Mining Investment Model: Explore + Extract + Exploit + Export = Ghost Towns + Resource Curse From Exploited Mining Environment To Sustainable Mining Environment Massacres and Ethnic Cleansing Rape of Mineral Wealth fare - Weapon of war Conflict Diamonds the Root of all Evil Conflict Diamonds the Root of all Evil

  9. This land must be healed This land, the whole land Will be healed, must be healed These brazen cities, the swollen mines The mineral of our sweat The teeming ghetto, the dormitory cells In towns and squalid squatter camps Where hope smothers in a tyre These furnaces of human indifference must incinerate With all the heat of a healing fire Those were the dark ages of mining And now the winds of change are blowing A brighter new future our way- A future of Global Mining Transformation A future of the paradigm shift This land, the whole land Will be healed, must be healed - Don Matera

  10. Mining industry post state custodianship of mineral rights – the fruits of paradigm shift  • Liberalisation of mining industry • Mining regulation in line with international practice • Development of junior mining sector • Mushrooming of exploration companies • Rural community equity participation and payment of royalties to rural communities • Creation of Integrated Development Plans and eradication of ghost towns • Robust procurement opportunities • Beneficiation - an engine for economic growth       

  11. Robust growth opportunities in the South African mining industry Total contribution of mining in South Africa – 2011 data (estimates) Total contribution of mining: GDP: $49-billion or 19% Jobs: 1 350 000 (16% of total employment)

  12. How did South Africa capitalize on the mining sector to ensure mining growth and diversification?Mining remains a key contributor to the South African GDP • 19% of GDP (directly and indirectly) • 38% of merchandise exports (primary and beneficiated mineral exports) • 12% of fixed investment (directly and indirectly) • Attracts significant foreign savings (R1.9trillion or 43% of value of JSE)

  13. How did South Africa capitalize on the mining sector to ensure mining growth and diverfication?Mining remains a key contributor to the South African GDP • Accounts for 13.2% of corporate tax receipts (R17billion in 2010 and R6billion in royalties. • 16% of formal sector employment (directly and indirectly) • 50% of volume of Transnet’s rail and ports • 94% of electricity generation via coal power plants • 40% of electricity demand. • About 37% of the country’s liquid fuels via coal

  14. Mining remains a key contributor to the South African GDP • Accounts for R441billion in expenditure and R407billion spent locally. • The total mining expenditure in 2010 was R441-billion, of which: • R228.4-billion was spent on purchases and operating costs (timber, steel, explosives, electricity, transport, uniforms, etc. • R78.4-billion went on salaries and wages for mine employees. • R49-billion on Capex (the lifeblood of mining). • R17.1-billion in tax. • R16.2-billion in dividends (only 3.7% of total). • R38-billion on depreciation and impairments. • R13-billion on interest to the banks

  15. Procurement since 1994 – the leading force behind enterprise development in the paradigm shift 41 000suppliers (2500 Narrow Based HDSAs 500 BBEE) Total annual procurement budget – estimated at $6 billion 2 1 3 33 mining houses; 15 venues; 6 provincial governments Approximately $600 millionto HDSA500 Buyers 4 • Develop BEE mining support industries Source: SAMPPF - 2006

  16. Procurement an Engine for Economic Growth 65 000suppliers (4500 Narrow Based HDSAs 12000 BBEE) Total annual procurement budget – estimated at $8.5 billion 2 1 3 66 mining houses; 15 venues; 6 provincial governments Approximately $950 millionto HDSA600 Buyers 4 • Develop BEE mining support industries Source: DECTI - 2008

  17. Botswana, A leading example of the country First strategy: A catalyst for economic growth and diversification • The Diamond Trading Company Botswana (DTCB), is a successful example of an economic paradigm shift. • The relocation of the Diamond Trading Company from London to Botswana is the new beginning of an economic revolution to develop from diamond sorting and valuing into beneficiation of minerals in Africa. • The country first approach is implemented through the creation of the DTCB • We salute President Khama and the people of Botswana for creating the Okavango Diamond Company which will secure the supply of diamonds to international diamond traders and investors. This is a great step towards liberating the diamond industry into beneficiation and diversification. • The Country First Strategy Prevails.

  18. Country First Economic Policies in the Paradigm Shift • The majority sentiment is that strategic minerals should not be foreign owned. E.g. let us learn from the example in Canada. • The Canadian government blocked BHP Billiton's $39 billion bid for Potash Corp, the world's biggest producer of a key crop nutrient, halting what had been the world's biggest takeover. • Industry Minister Tony Clement said "In Canada, our natural resources are an important economic driver,. "...I have come to the conclusion that BHP Billiton does not present a likely net benefit to Canada.” (2011). • ‘Country First Strategy!’ Should result in a net benefit for its people and its economy.

  19. Beneficiation a catalyst for economic growth and diversification • In 2010, South Africa as a resource economy was estimated to possess approximately $2.5 trillion in non-energy in situ mineral wealth, making it one of the wealthiest mining jurisdictions in the world. There was a need for South Africa to transform its mining industry culture from exporters of mineral ores or semi-processed minerals to high value intermediate and finished products (Beneficiation).

  20. What has South Africa learned from Botswana’s and Canada's Country First Mining Strategy? • South Africa identified 11 Strategic minerals, • SAMDA has included two additional minerals which are strategic and pivotal for the country’s developmental needs *SAMDA - South African Mining Development Association

  21. Beneficiation: A Government Led Value Chain Strategy The 11 commodities have been clustered according to their value chains. The government has identified five value chains that will be the preliminary focus of the new Beneficiation Strategy. There are instances where some of the commodities share value chains, such as Gold and Platinum. The five value chains are: • Energy commodities(coal, uranium and thorium) • Iron and steel (iron-ore, chromium and manganese) • Pigment and titanium production (titanium and vanadium) • Autocatalytic converters and diesel particulate filters(platinum) • Jewellery fabrication (diamonds, gold and platinum) Each value chain requires specific collaboration and interventions in order to maximise the value extraction of the associated minerals. Each value chain has its own unique beneficiation strategy, which can be further unpacked.

  23. Beneficiation Incentives Created By Government Through The Following: • Industrial Development Zones, eg: Airports or Harbours (Mining companies have the opportunity to establish beneficiation plants at an IDZ) • Special Economic Zones (SEZ) - A geographical region that has economic and other laws that are more free-market-oriented than a country's typical or national laws. "Nationwide" laws may be suspended inside a special economic zone – eg: Tax incentives from 28% to 15% Corporate tax rate reduction.

  24. Section 12 I Tax Allowance Incentive (12I TAI) (SARS) • The Section 12 I Tax Incentive is designed to support Greenfield investments (i.e. new industrial projects that utilise only new and unused manufacturing assets), as well as Brownfield investments (i.e. expansions or upgrades of existing industrial projects). The new incentive offers support for both capital investment and training. • The incentive offers: • R900 million in the case of any Greenfield project with a preferred status; • R550 million in the case of any other Greenfield project; • R550 million in the case of any Brownfield project with a preferred status; • R350 million in the case of any other Brownfield project; • An additional training allowance of R36 000 per employee may be deducted from taxable income; and • A maximum total additional training allowance per project of R20 million, in the case of a qualifying project, and R30 million in the case of a preferred project

  25. INTERGRATED RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT MODELS • A Integrated Mining Development Partnership with Local, Provincial and National Government, as well as Producers, Labour, Rural Communities, Business and various other stake holders. • Objective is to create a sustainable mining economy in the rural areas where mining production takes place in a model that will develop the mining areas , rather than creating Ghost Towns.

  38. Many achievements in the Long Road to Economic Freedom I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come, but I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibility, and I dare not linger, for my LONG WALK HAS NOT YET ENDED. (Nelson Mandela)
