Faith groups seek socially responsible southern African mines

Faith groups in southern Africa have condemned irresponsible mining practices by corporations they say have claimed lives, damaged the environment and impoverished communities, reports Ecumenical News International.

"Africa is poor because of its rich resources … This blessing must not became a curse to its people," said Archbishop Njongonkulu Ndungane, the former Cape Town Anglican diocese head. He was speaking at the opening of the Alternative Mining Indaba, a parallel event to the annual International Mining Indaba running from 1 to 4 February, two streets away.

The Mining Indaba attracts mining analysts, fund managers, investment specialists and financiers from around the world.
