The South African Mining Industry is very crucial to it's economy. Transnet is one of it's major players. Given that it had a set budget for the 2021/22 financial year, much of which was supposed to be financed by the mining sector, unfortunately, the sector delivered a shortfall.
If Transnet had performed on its nameplate capacity of 78 million tons rather than the 58 million tons delivered in 2021, the industry would have gained R32 billion in revenue. The sector lost R16 billion in sales by failing to meet its objective of 68 million tons.
Because of the above shortfall, assuming current market prices, more than a third of the R140 billion in tax scheduled to be paid from all South African mining firms.
