Excellent article on Mining accidents in SA


https://www.iol.co.za/business/rising-sa-mine-deaths-need-urgent-attention-1.1055349




According to provisional figures released by the Department of Mineral Resources in January, South Africa’s mine fatalities declined by 24 percent last year, from 168 deaths in 2009 to 128 in 2010.

Despite the steady decline from 309 deaths in 1999, last year it was reported that South Africa’s mine safety record was still 50 percent worse than those of Australia, the US and Canada. Australia reported four fatalities in 2007/08, while the US had 23 deaths. Canada had eight mining fatalities in 2008.
