To Develop an iron-ore mine in Melmoth, in the eastern KwaZulu-Natal province.
Description:
A plan by Jindal Steel & Power Ltd. to develop an iron-ore mine that will cost around $2 billion in South Africa is facing opposition from communities who say the operation would require thousands of homes and graves to be relocated. The proposed mine in Melmoth, in the eastern KwaZulu-Natal province, would dwarf recent investments in South Africa’s mining industry. It could produce 32 million tonnes of magnetite ore a year by 2031 after starting production in 2027, It expects to get a mining license next year and a processing plant will take two-and-a-half years to construct.
