Afrimat Value Chain

At Afrimat, we understand the importance of being a responsible corporate citizen. This commitment goes beyond just our bottom line - it permeates every facet of our operations, from the boardroom to the reclamation of mined land.
We are firm believers that responsible mining practices and operational efficiency go hand in hand, and we achieve throughout our value chain:
•Governance: Strong corporate governance starts at the top. Our board ensures all mining projects adhere to the highest ethical and environmental standards.
•Application Process: We meticulously follow all regulatory requirements, conducting thorough environmental and social impact assessments.
•Transparency: We actively engage with communities through open and transparent public participation processes.
•Permits and Approvals: We secure all necessary permits and approvals from relevant authorities before commencing any mining activity.
•Sustainable Mining: Our mining processes prioritise efficiency, minimising waste and environmental impact. This includes responsible blasting techniques, optimised load-and-haul operations, and advanced crushing and screening technologies.
•Responsible Mining: during mining, we constantly audit the operations to ensure optimal use of mineral resources and environmental compliance with all approval conditions. Furthermore, during mining we engage with communities to ensure any collaboration is in line with specific community needs.
•Rehabilitation: We are committed to leaving a lasting positive impact. Our rehabilitation plans ensure mined land is returned to a productive state as far as possible.
•Financial Closure: We take full responsibility for the post-mining environment, with clear financial provisions for complete site closure.
By prioritising efficiency alongside responsibility, we are not only a leading mining group but also aim to ensure sustainable practices. We are proud to contribute to South Africa's economic growth while mining responsibly to ensure a sustainable environment for generations to come.
