EXPANSION INAUGURATED: President Cyril Ramaphosa was present earlier this month at the inauguration of VedantaZinc International’s Gamsberg Phase II Concentrator Expansion, in the Northern Cape. The R10-billion facility is the anchor investment in the Namakwa Special Economic Zone, which government hopes will become a mineral-beneficiation hub. Vedanta is reportedly now considering a smelter investment, but much will hinge on whether competitive electricity can be secured.

Nevertheless, South Africans should definitely not be impassive about their democratic rights and should exercise these by making an unmistakably clear X next to their preferred candidate and party.
