SA’s New Mining Investment Strategy & Fighting African Gun Violence
14:43 12.10.2026 (Updated: 14:53 02.11.2026) This Nnete Fela show unpacks the newly launched South African Minerals Council's new investment and growth strategy. We also discuss the scourge of illegal firearms across Southern Africa.
The SA Minerals Council's new investment and growth strategy was launched in October 2026. It is aimed at reversing the 80% drop in mining exploration spending over two decades.
South Africa attracts less than 1% of global exploration capital despite having exceptional mineral resources
Peter Major, director of mining at Modern Corporate Solutions, joins the show and argues that SA should compete aggressively with other mining destinations.
Later in the show we discuss the scourge of illegal firearms across Southern Africa. This segment features Dr. Stanley Maphosa executive director of Gun Free South Africa.
Maphosa argues that we need to stop illegal guns from getting into the wrong hands.
“We must stop firearms from entering the criminal circulation, must trace their origin. And hold those responsible for diversion and trafficking accountable,” Maphosa stated.
Can we curb gun violence in Southern Africa?
Will the new mineral strategy work?
