The disgruntled Bengwenyema-ye-Maswati community in Limpopo’s Steelpoort has lodged a civil case against mining company Miracle Upon Miracle in Polokwane’s High Court.
The community members say that they co-own shares in the new platinum located in their area. They claim that the Australian-based mining company has sidelined them.
The community says they own the land where a new platinum mine is earmarked for development in the future.
They have accused the Australian-owned corporation of secretly listing the mine on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
The mine allegedly interdicted the community’s rights to have an influence within the mining company.
