- Acquisition, placement and management of 4 10-ton
tipper trucks at Banson Trucks (Chrome mines)
- Further contract secured with DJ & AJ Plant Hire, running in
Sasol, and experience derived therefrom:
– Not lucrative industry unless you have direct contracts and
competitive rates
– Need experience and capacity
- Collaborations with Ultimum Group

ese Commodity Commodity Tran Transportati sportation

- Elements to be kept top of mind with
regards to the transportation of Manganese:
– Product is very heavy so containers cannot be filled fully – It is very porous and therefore packaging (with keeping humidity levels to a minimum) is vital – environmental research to be undertaken – Cleanliness of packaging and transport medium critical so that product is not contaminated

he Transport rt Indu Industry stry
- The volatility of the industry needs to be taken into account and
mitigated effectively
- The following problems are rife in the industry:
– Non-competitive rates (larger companies vs. smaller companies) – Exploitation of small, black transporters and new entrants – “Empty parking lot” through bullying and aversive tactics of larger
players – Non-availability of trucks due to poor planning by mines
– Non-securitization of payments and financing requirements
– Non-maintenance of fleet (breakdowns, ageing of vehicles, fuel and
part theft) – Ill management of timing and routes (standing time, loading times, route calculations, etc)
– Site inductions and driver management

Overall Overall Concept Concept
- To research and put together most cost-effective and
efficient solution to transport requirements, between or
combination of:
– Flat bed trucks (superlinks, links, tri-axials) – Containers (walking floors, top loading, side loading, front loading) – Tippers (side or back) – Road-trains – Conveyor belts – Rail
- To revise solution on an ongoing basis (through
consistent research) to enhance efficiency and cost- effectiveness
- Policy: No truck will be older than 4 years
- GOAL: Give most cost effective price and solution pertaining
to your current realities
Immediate Immediate Availabili Availability ty
We have the capacity to put:
- 1 to 50 trucks within 2 weeks
- 51 to 100 trucks within 4 weeks
Subject to signature of formal contracts, payment guarantee approvals and fuel availability
Sub Sub-contrac contractor tor Split Split
We recommend the following balance of interest among the transport sub- contractors to ensure risk is mitigated but economic empowerment is kept at the forefront - At Project Initiation – 100 Trucks as Example
Depending on feasibility - We undertake to acquire additional Small Transport companies, as well as to mentor and assist in the growth of both the small and micro entities already contracted to the project – an enterprise development
programme will be structured and implemented (under a ‘Kalagadi Fund’ umbrella)
Sub Sub-contrac contractor tor Split Split
Increase to 300 Trucks (Example)
- Medium Transport Companies - 50% of entire project split
equally among 4 to 5 medium players in the industry:
– Entities owning and managing between 50 and 100 trucks – Examples - Active Power, Blue Sky, Mac Transco, PC Van Rensburg – They have the capacity and funding resources to effectively provide for a project of Kalagadi’s magnitude but without the ability to monopolize the situation (like larger companies would do) – If one player retracts, there will sufficient resources among the rest in order for service not to halt
- Small Transport Companies – 35% of entire project will be split
and managed among a number of small players:
– Entities that own and manage between 5 and 20 trucks – B-BBEE and HDI owned entities will take preference
Sub Sub-contrac contractor tor Split Split
- Micro Transport Companies – 10% of entire project will
be split and managed among a number of small players:
– Entities that own between 1 and 5 trucks – Distressed owners – Owner / Driver scenarios – Only HDI owned will be considered – Coaching / Mentoring plan will be put in place
- Localization – 5% of entire project will be split and
managed among a number of players based in the Northern Cape
Sub Sub-contrac contractor tor Split Split
Concept: Concept: Workshops Workshops & & Depot Depots
- We recommend the establishment of workshops at both the loading and
- ff-loading areas:
– 4 Service Bays for every 50 trucks – Wash bays to mitigate cross-contamination from transporting different products
- To have breakdown teams on standby (mechanics, vehicles, tools, etc)
for emergency situations:
– Especially to assist the small and micro companies
- Management of depots (rail, harbour, road)
- GOAL: To ensure trucks are maintained at an ‘almost-new’ level in order
to minimise on breakdowns and other incidental costs
Calculation Calculation of Rates
- f Rates
We would like to balance providing the best service at
market related rates
Calculation of rates will be based on:
- Route conditions
- Truck maintenance
- GIT Insurance
- Management Fee (adjusted according to economies of
scale) We want to avoid circles of disaster and ensure sustainability of our solution.
LOGISTICAL LOGISTICAL MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT
The loading and off-loading
Plotting Plotting a Solution a Solution
- Various packaging solutions will be researched and the most efficient and
effective solution will be put together to meet Kalagadi’s requirements.
Options include:
– Containers – Bagging – Barrels – Pallets
- Blackmagic has obtained written commitment from industry players, to the
value of over R 100 million each (and more as required), for the mine’s plant requirements at loading and off-loading for the Kalagadi project:
– ERFTRIM – Blue Sky Carriers – Met Group – SJ Drilling – Any of the 4 are able to manage 3 million tons per annum
FUEL FUEL MANAGEM MANAGEMENT ENT

- Estimation of 2 million liters required to manage 150
trucks monthly
- To research the purchasing and placement of fuel
in bulk at discounted rates
- Absolutely vital to the management and security of
the fleet (at both loading and off-loading zones) as well as the smooth operation of the mine itself

Empowerment Skills Transfer Knowledge and Expertise
Skills Skills Transfer Transfer
- We undertake to develop the necessary industry related skills in young,
promising HDI individuals through implementing a mentorship
programme whereby the selected individuals shadow the core project team: – The individuals will be sourced locally and from other regions – We will develop an internship programme that looks at specific skills transfer (creating syllabi) – The eventual goal is to place some of these individuals in permanent
positions within the project
– There will be a focus on youth and women (a quota will be implemented)
Skills Skills Transfer Transfer
- Blackmagic has a strategic relationship with an organization called Student
Sponsorship Programme, through which a specialised programme can be
developed to identify promising individuals who are still at school and nurture their interest and growth from that point (such as holiday internships at the mine)
- Blackmagic also has a strategic relationship with Youth in Mining SA,
which could be leveraged to source individuals
Skills Skills Transfer Transfer
- Local Employment:
– It will be a condition of our contracts with sub- contractors that they need to recruit a certain percentage of their drivers from the local
community as frequent staff turn-around occurs
Needs Needs Analysis Analysis at at Mine Mine
- We would like permission to conduct a 3 day on-site
needs analysis:
– Day 1 –
- Inspection / tour of grounds (sinter plant, shafts, etc) with our
yellow machinery consultants/associates for loading and off- loading and our transporting sub-contractors
- Meetings with various departments: Production,
Procurement, Logistics, Operations, Sinter Plant, Risk and Safety and any other department you may think relevant to us performing our job
– Day 2 & 3 –
- Inspection / tour of grounds (sinter plant, shafts, etc) with our
yellow machinery consultants/associates for loading and off- loading and our transporting sub-contractors
