Historian publishes a history of SA mining

Mining historian, columnist, journalist and author Jade Davenport will coincide the launch of her book Digging Deep – A History of Mining in South Africa, with the 2014 Investing in African Mining Indaba, which will take place at the International Cape Town Convention Centre from February 3 to 6. “The Mining Indaba is the largest gathering of mining professionals in Africa and with the 8 000 delegates that are expected to attend the 2014 conference, it just makes sense to launch the book at the event,” she says.
