Arnot OpCo Coal Mine
The Arnot coal mine resumed operations in 2019 under the new ownership and management of the consortium Arnot OpCo. In an unprecedented show of workers empowerment, 1 200 retrenched employees now hold their own stake in the Arnot colliery, and are able to steer the mine toward the future in a novel way, following its closure in 2015 after a coal supply agreement with Eskom expired.
