A comprehensive directory of active mines, quarries, and mineral processing plants — supporting transparency, investment, and resource development across the Republic.

About the Directory

The Operating Mines Directory is an updated version of previous publications, listing all known operating mines and quarries, agents, and mineral processing plants across South Africa.

Mines are grouped according to their main commodity produced. For each operation, the directory provides details including the mine name, ownership, postal and contact information, commodities mined, operational status, type of mine, magisterial district, province, and location.

For quick access, you can also browse the active mines by province below.
