At Bokoni Platinum Mines (BPM), we are more than just a mining company; we are a catalyst for progress, guided by a commitment to excellence, sustainability, and community partnership. As a subsidiary of Africa Rainbow Minerals Limited (ARM), a leading South African mining conglomerate founded by the visionary Dr. Patrice Motsepe in 1997, we are proud to be a part of ARM's legacy of inclusivity and multiculturalism.
Bokoni Platinum Mines (BPM) is situated in the picturesque Limpopo Province, where history converges with the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Our platinum mine, located on the eastern limb of the Bushveld Complex, sprawls across an impressive 15,000 hectares. It stands as South Africa's second-largest platinum group metals (PGMs) resource, firmly establishing BPM's significant presence in the industry.
Our journey has been marked by transformation and innovation. Despite facing financial challenges and a six-year period of care and maintenance, BPM's future took a positive turn in September 2022 when African Rainbow Minerals (ARM) acquired the mine from Anglo American Platinum and Atlatsa Resources Corporation. Today, ARM is the sole owner of Bokoni Platinum Mines, fully dedicated to its revival in collaboration with local communities.
Revitalising our operations is a substantial undertaking, requiring specialised work and substantial investment. However, these challenges only serve to ignite our determination to pioneer an innovative approach in the industry.
At BPM, we are unwavering in our commitment to greatness, placing quality, safety, and sustainability at the core of our mission. Our journey goes beyond mere resource extraction; it is about positively impacting the lives of our exceptional employees, their families, and the communities we proudly serve.
Bokoni Platinum Mines is embarking on an exciting new chapter of growth through its 180ktpm project, a strategic initiative designed to increase production capacity, improve operational efficiency, and strengthen the mine’s long-term sustainability.
This project underscores our commitment to building a resilient, competitive, and future-ready operation that creates lasting value for our stakeholders.
As we advance our growth journey, we continue to invest in our people, infrastructure, and responsible mining practices. We remain dedicated to creating employment opportunities, supporting our host communities, and promoting sustainable development.
