Anglo Platinum is pleased to announce that the Potgietersrust Platinum Mines Limited (PPL) management and the community of Ga-Pila are jointly involved in the re-settlement of the entire community to the new village on the Sterkwater farm.
Negotiations, which include the National, Provincial and Local Governments, have reached an historical milestone - the commencement of the construction of some 770 houses for a population of about 4 500.
The project, which demonstrates the commitment of Anglo Platinum in promoting stability and a healthy living environment, will cost the company in excess of R135 million. The infrastructure includes water reticulation, electricity, new schools and churches.
