#0183;#32;In 2015, coal mined in Nigeria totalled billion metric tonnes, while metal ore mined totaled around 22 million metric tonnes, he illustrates. Coal is largely exploited in Nigeria due to its use in the steel and cement industries and as a fuel for
The current turbulence in the mining industry in South Africa has its roots in several different factors. First, the fall in global demand for platinum and other minerals due to recession; second, the consequences of the Marikana disaster in destabilising labour relations; and third, the structural character of our mining industry. A great deal has been written about the first two factors, so
