A history of mineral discovery in South Africa, the people and main factors that shaped the industry's development and growth, and the contribution that mining has made in transforming South Africa into a modern industrial state.

This second edition includes a new preface and two new chapters examining the profound post-apartheid transformation the mining industry has undergone since the advent of democracy.
