Ten years later, the bodies of Yvonne Mnisi, Pretty Nkambule and Solomon Nyirenda remain trapped at Lily Mine.

05 February marks the Lily Mine tragedy which is not just history it’s an ongoing injustice. Families are still waiting.

Safety should never be optional, and workers should never be the cost of profit.

We remember the fallen. We demand accountability and closure. 🕯️🇿🇦⚒️

My brother got a job after 15 years of being unemployed, he works from 07:00 to 13:00, he never applied he was plugged.

And guess what the person who plugged him is still working there, so its true you will never lose your job for plugging others with opportunities from where you work.

Petra Diamonds has announced the discovery of a rare 41.82 carat natural blue diamond at South Africa’s historic Cullinan Mine.

Blue diamonds are among the rarest gemstones in the world, and experts say the size, color and clarity of this stone, could place it among the most significant diamond finds ever recorded.

When your plans are backed by resources and money no amount of announcements will change the outcome. However when they are backed by hope and favours, announcing them makes the outcome feel fragile.

If I have R3M to buy a car, what can possibly change the outcome if I announce?

COAL DEMAND IS DECLINING

Global coal use has hit a ceiling and is set to begin a slow decline over the next five years as renewables and liquefied natural gas gain ground, the International Energy Agency said.

However, coal is not disappearing overnight. Developing countries, especially in Asia, still rely heavily on coal because it is affordable and widely available. China, which uses more coal than any other country, is expected to see a small drop in demand, while India’s coal use is likely to keep growing to support factories, jobs and electricity needs.

In the US, coal may see a short-term increase due to high gas prices, but the long-term trend remains downward.

Overall, coal is slowly losing ground as the world transitions to cleaner energy.

Kiddos, this is how you force an AI model to correct its reasoning and stop parroting inserted or decontextualised data.

Walked Grok through epistemic hygiene, line by line, until it conceded: there’s no robust evidence farm murders are disproportionately higher than the national rate.

Won a huge case against Greater Tzaneen Municipality which reaffirmed our first order that we may evict the Municipality from our Client’s property, disconnect and dismantle their substation which would leave tens of thousands of households without electricity for a year +

Resilience matters in MINING success.

Advocating for coal energy in this era of “just transition” feels like a crime. I’m definitely not abandoning this thesis topic for my MSc.
