Rosalyn Chan Duncan Pieterse Dennis Wang Lauren Tronick
Team #20
Mining Matters.
• Contribution to GDP: • 8.8% Direct, 18% Indirect/Induced
• Economic Investment • Accounted for 29% of All-share index at the end of 2011
• Employment and Absorption of an Unskilled Work force • Direct: 498,141 workers, Indirect: 500,000 workers
• Foreign Exchange • Primary mineral sales exports are 28% of total merchandise exports
• South Africa’s mines are the world’s largest producers of key minerals
Mining Comes at a Human Cost.
Health
• TB • HIV • Noise-Induced
Hearing Loss • Pneumoconiosis
• Silicosis • Asbestosis • Combination with
TB • Chronic
Obstructive Airway Disease
Environment • Acid Mine Drainage • Erosion and
Sedimentation • Cyanide/Chemical
Releases • Dust Emissions • Habitat Modification • Surface and
groundwater
Social • Family Separation • Increased
Engagement with Commercial Sex Workers
• Boom-and-Bust Development
• Lack of mining- community integration
• Unrest due to insufficient compensation

Total: $17, 240,000,000
Benefits of The 3 Ps.
• Utilization and modification of existing institutional arrangements
• Restoring governmental popularity and credibility
• Empowering local communities • Comprehensive reform
Looking Forward.
• Good governance • Labor brokering • Union relations
• Company transparency • Accountability
• Home state liability
Conclusion.
By preventing respiratory harm through The Dust Initiative, promoting a long term
commitment to housing and health care through the Community Transformation
Project, and protecting the welfare of miners and their families with The Miner
Compensation Reform Plan, our proposal effectively and sustainably improves the state
and image of the mining industry in South Africa.
