There are many examples of BEE initiatives that have failed in the past or where wealth transfer has remained firmly in the upper echelon of black society. Today, there is a very strong drive by Government to achieve the real aims of BEE, an objective satisfied by through meaningful HDI participation in shareholding, management and operations of the company, reinforced by strong Employment Equity drive and rapid and sustainable skills transfer through the partnership. Emthonjeni will not only achieve these objectives, but also satisfies the requirements of the Mining Charter in this regard
