Report poses serious questions about effectiveness of scrap export ban

Serious questions about the effectiveness and desirability of South Africa's prevailing scrap export ban have been raised in a new report, which calls for its immediate lifting unless evidence can be produced showing that the ban is having the desired effect of preventing infrastructure-related theft. Published by XA Global Trade Advisors, the report follows hot on the heels of a decision by ArcelorMittal South Africa to wind down its long-products business, partly because its integrated mills are unable to compete with those electric-arc furnaces that have secured a significant raw material advantage as a result of the trade restrictions placed on scrap. XA Global Trade Advisors CEO Donald MacKay argues that the combination of the price preference system, scrap export duties and the prevailing export ban have distorted the domestic steel value chain and have created financial risks that could have major implications for the State-owned Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) if unwound. The report calculates that there are yearly value transfers of R4.5-billion from metals recyclers to the scrap-based mini-mills on the three-million tons of scrap being sold yearly. It also estimates that the IDC has built up a R14-billion exposure to scrap-metal consuming sectors, which has created an incentive to sustain these transfers to companies that have become increasingly reliant on subsidised raw materials as electricity prices rise and infrastructure fails. "The electricity price cannot be lowered and so all the pressure is applied to the scrap recycling sector," the report argues. In response, the IDC told Engineering News that its exposure to steel-related companies stood at about R10-billion and was not confined to scrap-metal consuming firms. "The rationale for the IDC support provided to mini-mills was to increase competition in the primary steel industry, improve economic inclusion, access to markets for small and medium enterprises and black industrialists, and to enhance competition in related products. "The investment case also concerns market segmentation and the ability to comply with the market's requirements," the IDC stated. It added that the mini-mills supplied a complementary range of "fit-for-purpose" commodity products which were mainly driven by competitive factors such as an ability to respond to the market in a short period of time at the right price. "While several of the IDC's investee companies produce the standard commodity-type bar mill range, upgrades have also taken place over the years towards higher quality products and diversification," it added in response to questions. The XA report also highlights a lack of data transparency since the initial ban on the export of ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal was imposed by the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (dtic) on November 30, 2022, or following its six-month extension on July 31 this year. MacKay says that, despite Promotion of Access to Information Act requests, no information has been released on the theft of infrastructure since the ban, with even Transnet's cable theft data, which had been published regularly on the State-owned utility's website, having been removed from the public domain. Transparency, MacKay argues, is essential for assessing whether the ban's negative economic impacts are outweighed by the benefits. "The secrecy around scrap metal policy has created fertile ground for lobbying and corrupt decisions," he adds. The dtic told Engineering News it would study the report but did not want to comment so close to the closing date for comments on whether or not to extend the ban. "All comments received by the closing date will be carefully considered by Minister Ebrahim Patel before a decision is taken. "The Minister will consider all inputs and will carefully weigh the impact of the scrap and waste-metal ban on the steel value-chain against the substantial damage done to infrastructure and the associated disruptions to bus...

Electricity reform bears fruit with 1 185 generators now registered with Nersa

The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) reports that it registered a further 98 generation facilities - with a combined capacity of 908 MW and an investment value of R17.3-billion - during the second quarter of its 2023/24 financial year. These registrations, which took place from July to September, raise to 1 185 the total number of generation facilities registered since 2018. However, the pace of registrations accelerated markedly after a 2021 reform was made to Schedule 2 of the Electricity Regulation Act, lifting the licence-exemption cap from 1 MW to 100 MW. That cap was subsequently removed entirely to accelerate investment as power disruptions intensified. In August, the National Energy Crisis Committee reported that, since the implementation of the regulatory changes, the pipeline of private sector generation projects had increased to over 100 projects representing more than 10 000 MW of capacity. Projects registered with Nersa to date, meanwhile, have a combined capacity of 5 785 MW and an investment value of R111-billion and exclude the thousands of smaller installations that have been implemented by households and businesses in response to loadshedding. Eskom has estimated that some 4 400 MW of behind-the-meter generation was installed between July 2022 and July 2023, mostly in the form of rooftop solar. Nersa reports that 92 of the registrations during the second quarter were for solar photovoltaic (PV) facilities, which make up 71% of the capacity registered. The balance comprises two solar PV projects with battery energy storage systems, two co-generators and two wind projects. Regulator Member responsible for Electricity Regulation Nhlanhla Gumede commended the uptake in registrations, which he indicated had been processed by Nersa within an average of five working days. However, he recommended that future registration applications for generation facilities of variable energy sources be coupled with battery storage. Sixty-eight of the generation facilities registered during the period are connected to the Eskom network and have a total capacity of 785 MW and an associated investment value of R14.8-billion. A total of 30 generation facilities are connected to the municipal distribution network, with a capacity of 27 MW and investment value of R2.5-billion. The three provinces with the highest number of new registered generation facilities in the second quarter were Gauteng (19 projects for 11 MW), Western Cape (17 projects for 119 MW) and KwaZulu-Natal (15 projects for 7 MW). The top three provinces by capacity were the Free State (251 MW across 7 projects), North West (192 MW across 11 projects) and the Western Cape. The 11 projects registered in the North West province during the period carried the highest investment value, at R5.8-billion. The average investment cost for the second quarter of the 2023/24 financial year is R19 000/kW, Nersa states.

South Africa's ilmenite poised for huge value boost following China signing

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. South African ilmenite used to manufacture titanium dioxide pigment in KwaZulu-Natal has received a major value boost with the signing of an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for the long-awaited sulphuric acid titanium dioxide project that has been championed over many years by Nyanza Light Metals CEO Donovan Chimhandamba. The project highlights the huge opportunity for Africa and South Africa to move up the value curve by establishing advanced material production companies that make competitive use of locally mined materials. The $750-million required for the far-reaching titanium dioxide (TiO2) project is no small change and has been awaiting the high-level EPC signing with East China Engineering Science and Technology Company (ECEC), a subsidiary of China National Chemical Engineering Group Company. The signing was essential to give the many finance houses committed to funding the 80 000 t/y project the confidence needed. This solace stems from ECEC having built 31 plants in China over 60 years, as well as the EPC signed being followed by an ongoing operational upkeep agreement. The important backdrop to all this is that South Africa's ilmenite, a heavy mineral sands derivative, sells at around $300/t on export markets, whereas using it to manufacture TiO2 pigment at the Richards Bay Industrial Development Zone will enable it to potentially fetch a ten-times-higher $3 000/t. The first thing the R14-billion Nyanza project is seeking to achieve is to move Africa's abundant raw materials up the value curve, Chimhandamba emphasised to Engineering News & Mining Weekly in a Zoom interview earlier this year. The 80 000 t/y of TiO2 pigment is probably around half of Africa's buying capacity and just over 1% in terms of the global market. TiO2 is widely used in the fields of coatings, cosmetics, medicine, electronics and environmental protection. However, at present, there is not a single TiO2 factory in operation all across Africa, China Chemical Industry News journalists Li Dongzhou and Wang Peng have noted in their article sent to Engineering News & Mining Weekly. At last month's third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation held in Beijing, the EPC signing breakthrough was finally achieved. With shared technology and cooperation, Nyanza will produce TiO2 pigment in South Africa, demonstrating how the Belt and Road Initiative is benefiting development in Africa through cooperation with China, Dongzhou and Peng emphasise. Nyanza will be sourcing its ilmenite from within South Africa and Mining Weekly can report manufacturing costs could be lowered further if a way is found to blend in the 45-million tons of stockpiled ilmenite-containing slag at Evraz, the former Highveld Steel and Vanadium, in eMalahleni, Mpumalanga. The blending in could conceivably be brought about with higher-content ilmenite, or synthetic rutile from Richards Bay Minerals. Self-generation of 12 MW of solar power supported by battery storage is planned, augmented by cogenerated electricity from theTiO2 pigment plant itself once it is in operation. Already commissioned is a R200-million product testing and development centre, which is able to provide 700 t/y of TiO2 pigment sample to offtake partners. Offtake agreements for more than 60% of the 80 000 t/y capacity have already been signed and while the main plant is being built, the testing and development will be used to train the 850 employees that will be brought in early for upskilling. Africa Finance Corporation of Nigeria and African Export-Import Bank of Egypt are co-funders of the project's feasibility phase, and a third multilateral international finance institution is going through concluding the agreements. Senior debt is already oversubscribed, equity players have expressed interest, financial close is likely by year-end and construction is expected to begin next year. Arkein Industr...

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. Higher free cash flow, higher recovered grades, higher production and higher received gold price have been reported by Harmony Gold in its operational update for the three months ended September 30, the first quarter of the JSE-listed gold mining company's 2024 financial year. Group operating free cash flow in the quarter rocketed by 278% to R3 236-million on higher recovered grades at the Mponeng and Moab Khotsong gold mines in South Africa and by a strong quarter at Hidden Valley in Papua New Guinea (PNG). "The first quarter saw a continuation of the strong operating performance across all our operations," Harmony stated in a release to Mining Weekly on Monday, November 13. High-grade South African underground operations contributed 53% towards group operating free cash flow and the PNG mine 22%. The initial quarter of Harmony's new financial year has been sufficiently buoyant to give confidence that annual guidance of 1 380 000 oz to 1 480 000 oz will be produced in the full year. All-in sustaining costs (AISC) below R975 000/kg and underground grade of 5.6 g/t to 5.75g/t are forecast. Highlights for the three months ended September 30 include a 17% increase in total quarterly gold production to 425 130 oz, compared with 363 336 oz the same three months of corresponding period of Harmony's 2023 financial year. AISC for the quarter was $1 404/oz was 7% improved and quarterly gold revenue was 33% higher at R14 781-million on an 18%-higher rand gold price received of R1 127 208/kg. Underpinned by the high-grade Mponeng and Moab Khotsong mines were 18% higher recovered grades to 6.29 g/t from 5.35g/t. owing to entry into the high-grade 'Big Red' part of the orebody. Silver production from Hidden Valley jumped by 55% to 993 914 oz and the average silver price received rose by 35% to $23.59/oz, taking revenue to R433-million. Production of uranium, a by-product of the gold extraction process at Moab Khotsong, leaped by 50% to 154 420 lb and uranium sold by 116% to 205 000 lb. Year-on-year, the average uranium price received increased by 24% to $58.21/lb, resulting in uranium revenue of R223-million for the quarter. Harmony's key gold projects in execution include the tailings storage facility expansion at Mine Waste Solutions and the Zaaiplaats project, which is the life of mine extension at Moab Khotsong. Harmony looks forward to working with Newmont as it continue with the permitting of Wafi-Golpu in PNG. Sustainability is informing the updating the feasibility study for the Eva Copper project in Australia, where a key project consideration is to include the supply of renewable power in the project plan. The sequencing of capital expenditure is expected to remain largely unchanged, with comfortable levels of capital intensity alongside a robust balance sheet. Regarding health and safety, Harmony is deeply saddened by three colleagues - Amahle Nodangala, a rock drill operator and Luvuyo Sangeni, a development team member, both from Kusasalethu in Gauteng, and Mlandelwa Zide, a scraper winch operator from Tshepong North in the Free State - losing their lives in two separate fall-of-ground events.

Durante muchos años la mayor parte de los modelos de Renault tenían como nombre un simple número. Pero, a diferencia de otras marcas, en las que el número era una pista, en Renault el número despista. Así que vamos a repasar todos… del R3 al R900, ¿o no sabías que hubo un R900, una especie de monovolumen con motor V8? ¡Hoy nos vamos a divertir! Porque es cierto que en otras marcas la numeración te da una pista. Pongamos por ejemplo BMW. Sabes que el primer número te da una referencia de la categoría del coche, un serie 3 es más que un serie 1 y menos que un serie 5. Además, los impares son 4 puertas laterales y los pares 2. Y las dos siguientes cifras te orientan sobre la cilindrada… todo muy organizadito y muy alemán… algo parecido hace, por ejemplo, Mercedes-Benz. Pues en Renault resulta que un R15 es un deportivo y que un R16 es una berlina media. Un R10 es un tres volúmenes, pero el R9 es también 3 volúmenes, como el R12… pero en cambio el R11 es dos volúmenes… ¡Vaya lio! ¿O no? Pues la verdad es que no. Cierto que no hay una lógica “global” pero por el conocimiento de la marca y de los modelos lo cierto es que la inmensa mayoría de los casos nadie tiene ningún problema para saber de qué coche hablamos. Hay excepciones, como el R3 que no todo el mundo conoce, o el R7 que no lo hubo en todos los países, o los R15, R15 y R17 no muy conocidos en España. Y la estrella del video de hoy, el R900. Y empezamos, por orden ascendente y con una advertencia: NO hemos tenido en cuenta los coches de competición sobre todo los F1. ¡Vamos allá! R3 (1961), R4 (1961), R5 (1972), R6 (1968), R7 (1974), R8 (1962), R9 (1981), R10 (1965), R11 (1981), R12 (1969), ¿R12+1?, R14 (1976), R15 (1971), R16 (1965), R17 (1971), R18 (1978), R19 (1988), R20 (1975), R21 (1986), R25 (1983), R30 (1975) y R900 (1959) Conclusión. ¿Me he olvidado de alguno? Espero vuestros comentarios . Y en un próximo vídeo, los F1. Coche del día. Cualquiera me valdría. Confieso que cuando vi los primeros dibujos, ni siquiera eran fotos, de los R20 y R30 me enamoré de ese coche. Pero no, el coche del día es el R16, un coche que cuando le vi me pareció un R6 “grandote” y que cuando lo probé me enamoró… un TX tendría, sin duda, en mi garaje.

Coches incomprendidos: Renault 14. El "coche pera"

El Garaje Hermético de Máximo Sant

No me digáis que soy malo por llamar al Renault 14 el “coche pera”… Porque fue una idea, mala idea, de la propia Renault. Muchas cosas salieron mal para que este coche, sucesor del R12 y mucho mejor que él, no triunfase… y para que nunca viese la luz su versión coupé. No nació para competir con el Volkswagen Golf, sino con la idea de superarlo. Ahí es nada. Pero esa era la meta del director de Renault, Bernard Hanon quien no escatimó recursos. Renault en los años 70. La gama de Renault en 1970 gozaba de un gran éxito, pero excepción hecha del Renault 5, nacido en 1972, se había quedado anticuada. Hablamos de los R4, R6, R16 y del R12 y sus derivados deportivos, los R15 y R17, sin olvidar que al R8 llegó hasta el 71 en Francia y 1976 en España y México. En el segmento medio, el de mayores ventas, el R12 ya era un dinosaurio, aunque se vendía bien y tenía mucho prestigio… y tuvo algunas segundas vidas como Dacia y en mercado de América de sur. ¡Más madera! Había que pararle los pies, mejor dicho, las ruedas, al VW Golf y a todo lo se le venía y desde Renault se pusieron en marcha. Hanon pidió a Robert Broyer, diseñador del R12, que diseñase su sustituto, pero pensando en el Golf, es decir, con dos volúmenes. Y como Renault tenía prisa hizo algo hoy en día muy frecuente, pero que no lo era tanto en esos años: Llegar a un acuerdo con una marca rival, concretamente Peugeot, para desarrollar un moderno motor que acabaría siendo usado más por Peugeot que por Renault. Recibimiento frío. Hemos tenido en esta serie de coches incomprendidos coches como el #Fiat Multipla o el AMC Pacer, coches que causaron rechazo desde el principio… pero no dejaron indiferente. Eso de que se hable de ti, aunque sea mal, también pasa en los coches. El R14 no causó rechazo, fue peor, causó cierta indiferencia. El R14, incluso por dentro, a muchos les parecía “demasiado moderno” a otros, simplemente soso… como era el caso de su salpicadero. El ”coche-pera”. Y entonces a un “brillante” -con comillas- ejecutivo-creativo publicitario se le ocurrió una idea extraordinaria: Comparar al R14, que se vendía en un verde “pera” con una pera. ¿Con que objetivo? No se sabe. A lo mejor ese día este creativo no se había tomado su medicación, pero lo cierto es que esta publicidad salió adelante. ¿Y qué pasó? Que se retiró enseguida. Pero el daño estaba hecho. Los clientes, no veían esa forma de pera como una solución de diseño destacable, más bien lo interpretaban como una prueba de falta de solidez y seriedad. Al final se quedó con el mote, que rebasó Francia para llegar a otros países. Convivió cuatro años con el R12, al que apenas superaba en ventas y antes de siete años fue sustituido por el R11 y luego por el 9. Su produjeron en algo más de seis años casi un millón de coches… ¿Puede considerarse en fracaso? Hombre si te digo que del VW Golf I se han fabricado 7 millones de unidades, desde 1974 hasta 2009, cuando cesó su fabricación en Sudáfrica, pues sí. Todo es relativo. España: Más de lo mismo. La vida del R14 en España fue todavía más breve, pues no apareció hasta 1976, cuatro años más tarde, pero eso sí, era Made in Spain. A pesar de los esfuerzos de la marca, el R14 lo tuvo peor en España, un mercado mucho menos maduro y donde los coches de 2 volúmenes, pese al Golf, se perciben como “menos coche” que un tres volúmenes. ¡Hubo un coupé! El proyecto 121, que era la clave interna del R14, contemplaba una versión coupé, parecida a un Hunting Break o Shooting Brake, como más os guste… “coupé de caza” para entendernos. En 1974 François Wasservogel, propuso este concepto de un "shooting brake" basado en el R14 que entonces se estaba industrializando. Se piense en Ligier para hacer esta carrocería, pero suceden dos cosas: Una la crisis de petróleo no invita a lanzar coupés, aunque sean modestos. La otra, que se acaban de remodelar los R15 y R17… así que iba haber una rivalidad interna. Se decide dejar el proyecto para más adelante, pero el escaso éxito del R14 aconseja no liarla más. Una curiosidad, para este modelo se preveía la denominación R9, por ser impar, como los otros coupés y de una numeración inferior, que debía dar idea que se situaba por debajo de los otros modelos deportivos. Conclusión. ¿Mereció este modelo semejante “maltrato” por parte de los compradores? Pues sin duda no. Honestamente, creo que no era un producto redondo que, si tren delantero McPherson no estaba bien resuelto, que faltaban versiones más prestacionales que sí tuvieron sus rivales, entre ellas el Golf GTi, que la estética no cautivo y que la publicidad fue en error de bulto… pero, dicho todo esto, no era un mal coche, ni mucho menos. Y, en mi opinión, en este momento, precisamente porque no tuvo éxito, porque se fabricaron, pocas unidades y se mantienen aún menos, es una buena pieza de colección.

After being called bullish about the Rand; TreasuryOne's currency expert Andre Cilliers is confident that the rand can remain entrenched between R14.50 and R14.85 in the near term. He told Biznews that the Rand strength is supported by peace talks between Russia and Ukraine and although people tend to forget what the impact of the war is as it drags on; it is still very much at the forefront. Cilliers also weighs on Moody's revision of the country's outlook to stable, and on the impact on the economy of billions of rands that was returned to the Treasury by the North West and other provinces.

TreasuryONE's Currency Risk Strategist Andre Cilliers has been involved in the foreign exchange markets for almost four decades. During that time he could probably count on one hand the number of times he has been optimistic on South Africa's ever weakening currency. But a confluence of factors are providing a powerful stimulant - with Cilliers having transformed (at least temporarily) into a Rand Bull. He reckons a further surge to R14.50 against the US Dollar may be on the cards.
