3 Million FFS milestone for Dwarsrivier Chrome

Mine - p 2

R36 holiday route is open The R36 route from Mashishing (Lydenburg) through Ohrigstad to Hoedspruit, Phalaborwa and Tzaneen vio Strydom Tunnel is open after the Police at Leboeng arrested a number of road blockers on Tuesday this week.

According to Leboeng Police communications officer, constable Andrew Maimela Sibatana, they are investigating a case of public violence after the community of Leboeng Gankoana village blocked the R36 Road with burning tyres and stones next to Leboeng New Stands. On Tuesday 2015-12-01 at about 04:00 the Police received a report that the R36 Road is blocked with stones and burning tyres next to Leboeng New Stand Mountains. On arrival the Police went there and found that indeed the road was blocked, but it appeared as if the road blockers went home as the scene was deserted. At about 09:00 the Community of Leboeng Gankoana arrived in large numbers with tyres and blocked the R36 road again. The Police dispersed them and arrested 14 people, of which two were released under parental custody as they were under-age.

The Leboeng Police say ‘We advise our communities to refrain from blocking the national roads as these may endanger the lives of innocent road users. One of our mandates as the Police is to maintain public order and to protect the citizens of South Africa and any person in this country and their property. We are going to make sure that we prevent anything that endangers the lives of our citizens and their property”. The suspectswere scheduled to appear in the Praktiseer Magistrate’s Court on Thursday 2015-12-03.

The business rescue practitioners of Mapoachs Mine at Roossenekal says the creditors of the mine has voted in favour of the business rescue plan on 30 November 2015.

EVRAZ Highveld Steel and Vanadium Limited (Highveld) (which is also in business rescue which has been halted because of legal action) has a 74 percent stake in Mapochs Mine.

The result of the creditors’ vote is that Mapochs Mine will not be liquidated, but will continue with business rescue.

The plan provides for, inter alia, the purchase of creditors’ claims, excliding the claims of Highveld and employees, against Mapochs Mine by Hong Kong based major metals company International Resources Project Limited, also the successful bidder in Highveld.

“16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. ”Genesis 1:16-18 (NIV)

(Photograph taken in Burgersfort last week during the full moon)

“Once again the year is almost done, although it seems like yesterday.

I therefore wish to congratulate all of us in Limpopo for working diligently through diffi cult and trying times. My greatest gratitude’s goes to those civil servants who served with distinction, taking services to our people. I hope this trend continues in the coming year of 2017.

I call upon all who will be travelling to do it with care and in style. There is nothing as sweet as arriving alive although late. Let’s drive safely with the mind of all others including pedestrians. Let’s do it even if there are no traffi c police.

May we assist the police to do their job with distinction. Let’s have a crime free festive season by being police reservists.

May we all pray for peace and rain. May we take Christmas as a time for family reunion.

Happy Christmas and a Prosperus New Year!”

Throughout the year, various benefi ciaries have benefi ed from Tubatse Chrome’s informal CSI ini a ves. Here are but a few examples of the great work done:

Kohin con nues to make great strides in the schools where they are currently based. As a result of on-going support, Kohin has been able to place Youth Coaches at Kgahlanong High School and Maelebe Primary School. These Youth coaches provide guidance and counselling to chil-dren in need of psychological and emo onal care.

During the winter holidays, the four high schools in the area received fi nancial assistance to host the Winter school. This me is used to prepare the Matriculants for the examina ons they’ve just fi nished. Tubatse Chrome proudly awaits their good results.

Rehlahleng School for the Disabled in Ga-Mampuru was a benefi ciary of Tubatse’s generous heart. The school receveid an offi ce container, fi rst aid kit with training, mat-tresses and washing machines. To celebrate the work done, learners and teachers were treated to a lunch and cake.

Tubatse reaches out

Dona ng blood, giving life

Tubatse Chrome employees gave one of the ul mate gi s a person can give - they donat-ed blood. The South African Na onal Blood Service (SANBS) visited them and employees could conven-iently donate blood right there. Tubat-se Chrome is proud to have employees who regularly give this precious gi of life.

Enterprise and Supplier DevelopmentTubatse Chrome remains commi ed to suppor ng and nurturing emerging small and medium sized business-es.

Learners sign on for the school

progammeTubatse Chrome has signed seven learners onto the School Programme for 2015. Learners come from the Kgahlanong Secondary School in Eerstegeluk and Sehlaku High School in Driekop. These grade 11 learners were chosen a er a toughselec on process and they will a er comple ng high school complete their trade as either boilermakers; electricians or fi ers over the next 4 years. These learners know that they will have to perform well in all the areas required to achieve their goals of qualifying for a trade.

Tubatse Chrome cares for the community and acted on a call from Shopiane Primary School to assist them with blazers for their school choir. The school wanted their learners to be uniformly clothes when par cipat-ing in the many choir compe ons locally and the district.

Choir blazers

donated

Early in 2015 the Tubatse Chrome Management team handed over a musical keyboard to the Music Department at Kgahl-anong Secondary School. The school choir rendered a few musical items which le everyone in awe of their talent. With their new keyboard, the school wanted to start off ering instrument lessons and taking their choir to local and na onal compe ons. This dona on made sure that the school’s year started on a good note.

On a good note

A group of Tubatse Chrome employees visited the Kgahlanong Secondary School Matric Class of 2015. The school received a 76,4% matric pass rate in 2014 and the teachers credit the success of the school to the inspira on a group of employees from Tubatse Chrome le behind during a visit early last year. The Class of 2015 have challenged themselves to achieve a 100% pass rate - none of them wants to be the weakest link!

DWARSRIVIER MINEThumbs up for Dwarsrivier’s

community projects

Dilapidated structures and shacks used to be shelter to the hawkers before the construc on of the stalls.

Commi ee members of the Greater Tubat-se Hawkers Associa on’s Burgersfort Branch gave Dwarsrivier’s hawker stalls their stamp of approval. They are keen for hawkers to register with the municipality as the registered permit holders will be given preference when it comes to alloca on of the stalls. This will be done by the municiaplity.

Dwarsrivier Mine was busy during 2015. Various projects are nearing comple on and will make life easier for the recipients in the community. In Burgersfort Dwarsrivier Mine spon-sored the construc on of 40 hawker stalls near the Burgersfort Clinic. These stalls are fi lling such an urgent need that some hawkers have already started using them while they await the formal handover and alloca on of the stalls. Ngwaabe community was one of the communi es on which the focus fell with various projects. The Ngwaabe Home Based Care used to operate from two dilapidated rooms and a shack. They are now comfortable in a new 9 room building that includes offi ces, a kitchen and boardroom. The mine also made sure that a borehole was drilled and water supplied on the premises. Paving around the building is underway, palisades surrounds the property and even aircondi oners were installed in the building. The Home Based Care serves 270 per-manent pa ents and also look a er vulnerable individuals in the commu-nity. Tradi onal healers will be housed in two outside offi ces that is currently under construc on. The Mogoshadi Day Care Centre in Ngwaabe takes care of 215 children between 0 and 5 years old. They re-ceived a brand new building, palisades to enclose the premises and paving is underway. Flushing toilets will also be constructed in a future phase of the project. At Masago Primary School toilet facili- es are in a terrible state. Dwarsrivier

Mine undertook the construc on of new toilet blocks for boys, girls and the teachers. This should be fi nished before the start of the new school year in 2016. In Kutullo enterprise development as-sisted Mapadima Tyre Repair Centre to not only move from under a tree into a new building, but also assisted in the purchasing of state of the art equip-ment. Ge ng a fl at tyre on the R555 is not a problem anymore. Mr. Julius Tshehla is the manager for his father Piet, who started the business and his team is ready to assist. The mine will also be pu ng up some pallisades, paving and toilets at the business. Earlier this year the Kalkfontein community also received water from Dwarsrivier Mine. Boreholes were drilled and are in the process of being linked to a water re cula on system to make access to water in this area easier. This community was not taken into account for water from the De Hoop Dam and would have gone dry for many years had it not been for this assistance from the mine. Dwarsrivier is commi ed towards empowering the communi es sur-rounding the mine and these projects are proof of them not being scared to commit and pull through on their social labour and social development plans - even in diffi cult economic mes.

The Mapadima Tyre Repair Centre on the R555 at Kutullo is a family business. They are very proud of their new equipment and building.

The Mapadima Tyre Repair Centre started opera ng from under a tree 15 years ago. Piet Tshehla (from Ngwaabe community) is the owner of the business, but his son Julius is managing it for him now. They used to operate from a sad-looking trailer on which they had a compressor and a few essen al items to assist motorists experiencing trouble with their wheels. With the help of Dwarsrivier Mine they are now ready to assist in almost any situa on.

DWARSRIVIER MINEGiving Home Based Care to its community Home Based Care workers care for pa ents in the

community facing ba les such as HIV/Aids, TB, cancer and other illnesses. These pa ents are in need of care, but cannot be taken care of at a hospital perma-nently. Workers also look a er vulnerable people in the society such a child headed households. They try to assist in various forms. This diffi cult, but very important task has been made easier with the help of Dwarsrivier Mine. Ngwaabe Home Based Care is now equipped with a proper building and facili es such as water supply. Work at the premises will soon be completed and the shared vision of proper care for communi es be fulfi lled.

The Mogashadi Day Care Centre in Ngwaabe’s old buildings were far too small and under equipped for the 215 youngsters they accom-modate every day. Dwarsrivier Mine’s assistance has vastly im-proved the quality of care the Day Care Centre is able to off er. Dwarsrivier did not stop at construc ng the buildings, they also donated equipment needed for the classrooms. Keeping the

kids safe is a priority. A palisade fence is being constructed and paving will also be put around the build-ings.

Giving dignity with be er sanita on to the Ngwaabe communi es

Masago Primary School in Ngwaabe had a mas-sive shortage of toilet facili es for the school’s learners and teachers. Dwarsrivier Mine commi ed to building new blocks of toilets for the boys, girls and teachers. Proper sanita on provides dignity and this is something Dwarsrivier Mine believes commu-ni es should have. The old and new facilies are shown on the photographs.

The Modikwa Gold team attended the AMMSA (Association of Mine Managers South Africa) Presidents’ Golf day on Friday the 27th of November 2015 at the Krugers-dorp Golf Course in Gauteng.

The aim of this golf day and other AMMSA golf days are to raise funds for the associations’ social responsibility program that takes care of people injured in mine acci-dents and also the families of deceased mine workers due to accidents.

At the event the Pres-ident of the Association, Mr. Thediso Mohase thanked all that attended the day and for the contri-butions they made towards AMMSA.

The team enjoyed the day and battled a little with the Krugersdorp Golf Course as this is quite a technical type of course where course management and planning is needed. The team however did very well for the fi rst time that they played this challenging course and ended up with a score of 58 points.

“The team would like to thank the Modikwa management team for the

Watervalsrivier Geloftefees aktiwiteite 2015

Hier staan ons voor die heilige GOD van hemel en aarde om ‘n gelofte aan Hom te doen dat as Hy ons sal beskerm en ons vyand in ons hand sal gee, ons die dag en datum elke jaar as ‘n dankdag soos ‘n sabbat sal deurbring, en dat

ons ‘n huis tot sy eer sal oprig waar dit Hom be-haag, en dat ons ook aan ons kinders sal sê dat hulle met ons daarin moet deel tot nagedagtenis

ook vir die opkomende geslagte want die eer van Sy naam sal verheerlik word deur die roem

en die eer van oorwinning aan hom te gee.
