Taxation principles applicable to the mining industry in South Africa

Ample evidence exists that mining of base minerals and gold by the indigenous peoples of South Africa occurred since ancient times. Many of these mining sites are still preserved and may be visited by those interested in the origins of an industry which has dominated Southern Africa's more recent history. Following European settlement in South Africa, many attempts were made by the settlers to locate viable mineral deposits, and in the period leading up to the mid-nineteenth century various base minerals were exploited, including asbestos, copper and lead.
