Mineral Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe on Friday commended Sasol for the “good work” it was doing and the opening of its new Impumelelo Colliery.
He said it was notable that the opening of the mine came at a time when coal is under siege and that it should counter the narrative that coal is “dirty”.
The Minister further called on Sasol, as well as the broader coal mining sector, to collaborate with each other to continue pursuing clean coal technology.
