Re: South African Manganese Ore Company

Assmang Proprietary Limited, a company incorporated in the Republic of South Africa and its joint venture and subsidiary companies.


Manganese ore is mined in the Black Rock area of the Kalahari, in the Northern Cape Province.

The majority of the production is intended for export, but a portion is supplied within the Group to the two smelters: Cato Ridge Works in KwaZulu-Natal, and Machadodorp in Mpumalanga

Manganese Production

1867: Geological exploration starts in the Northern Cape province of South Africa.

1876: John Mintern surveys farms such as Beeshoek, Doornfontein, Driehoekspan
and Paling.

1907: Dr AW Jones and the Geological Commission of the Cape Colony identify
manganese at Black Rock. The immense potential of South Africa's manganese
deposits is finally understood, but the lack of a rail link deters investment.

1926: Captain Thomas Shone and his partners set up Union Manganese Mines and
Minerals Limited. They buy seven properties, including Bruce and King, and obtain
mineral leases for others, such as Beeshoek and Bishop.

1928: Guido Sacco forms Gloucester Manganese Mines near Postmasburg.

1929: Shone's new venture, the Manganese Corporation Limited, is registered. Large-scale production begins at the corporation's Beeshoek propert
