"Mining is but a sunrise industry."
This was one of the key messages shared by our CEO, Mosa Mabuza , during The Junior Indaba 2026.
His vision is one of a South Africa that leads through responsible exploration and thoughtful development of its mineral resources. It's a vision that recognises both the opportunities before us and the responsibility that comes with them.
Take a moment to listen as he shares his vision for the future of South Africa’s mining industry.

A big thank you to everyone who attended and spoke at this week’s Junior Indaba.
Two days of great discussions, insights, and engagement across the junior mining sector.
We appreciate your support and participation — it’s what makes the event so valuable.

Jason Brewer @MarulaPlc you’ve got to want to build a business to make money, not to sell it at the right price. At some point Marula will be bought, because of one of our assets will catch somebody’s eye, but until then we’re just going about our business #juniorindaba #mining

Coenie Middel, Middel & Partners, technology can be valuable but you have to stop buying technology, you need to buy the outcome. Technology is a tool, innovation is solving a relevant friction. Identify your top frictions & allocate resources to solve them #juniorindaba #mining

Dr William Shipman @Mintek_RSA you need to have data of sufficient quality & enough of it. Some miners aren’t maintaining their sensors or don't have the right kind. Centralising, automating your data & automating how you check your data are quick wins #juniorindaba #mining

Eben van Niekerk @vectrlabs, look at your value chain/operations - where are the constraints? Then you can tech-enable a solution. Data analytics and visualisation are a quick win, they're good at picking up trends that people can’t #juniorindaba #mining

Julie Courtnage @MindsForMines, too often off-the-shelf tech solutions are applied to the wrong environment. If employees aren't engaged, they won't adopt. Is your data ready? Is the technology you’re adopting vendor agnostic? Is the data transferable? #juniorindaba #mining

James Campbell @BotswanaDiamond, (on the sale of De Beers) I'd like to see a clean, sensible sale to a well-funded group that are good at marketing & have good relationships across the region. I hope it'll go back to being a profitable, albeit smaller sector #juniorindaba #mining

Tim George @PensanaRE, digital connectivity is the biggest opportunity for juniors to drive the process from concept through to production. Expertise isn't localised. You need to spread your net far and wide. Operational costs can also be reduced #juniorindaba #mining

Zinzi Lawrence @ENSlaw as a junior you must ensure that your permits are in order & you have valid environmental approvals. You can’t be left outside the ecosystem, you need to involve all your stakeholders, including communities #juniorindaba #mining
