Vaal Reefs Exploration & Mining Co.Ltd., Commission of Enquiry
Also called the Anglo-American Corporation Commission of Enquiry into the Incidents of violence that occurred at certain shafts at the Vaal Reefs Exploration & Mining Co.Ltd. during the latter portion of 1986. The Commissioner was Adv. D.A. Bregman, SC. Delegates included delegations from Transkei and Lesotho, as well as representatives from the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), the Department of Manpower, Anglo American Corp. and Vaal Reefs. The venue was Vaal Reefs, Klerksdorp.
The Commission stretched over some nine to ten months and consisted of some fifty days of hearings. Submissions from the delegations suggested that the violence occurred as a result of faction fights between overall Xhosa-speaking and Sotho-speaking workers on the mine, that took place during November 1986 and December 1986 at the No.1 and No.2 Shaft hostels.
The Vaal Reefs Exploration & Mining company, owned by Anglo American Corporation, was formed with 11 shafts by the 1980s, which made it one of the world's biggest gold mine at the time.
