Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) and Sibanye-Stillwater may need mediators to help South African wage talks move forward after negotiations with the platinum industry’s largest labor union reached a deadlock.

The producers are now looking to bring in mediators to resolve the standoff internally rather than seeking arbitration from the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration, the companies said.
