Charter

Total Compliance. Responsible mining.

South Africa's Mining Charter has been hailed as one of the most progressive industry compliance tools in the world. Most African countries have used this charter as a blueprint for improving conditions in their specific local industries.

The charter compels all mining houses to implement local black ownership strategies, employment equity strategies, skills development programmes, beneficiation of minerals locally and affirmative procurement policies.

The African Romance™ is fully empowered and in addition has create a trust through which its workers own 5% of the business. Our partner mines also comply fully with these charter requirements and more. We do this because we believe that our future is only as secure as the foundation we build it on.
