Absa | Corporate and Investment Banking > Insights and Events > Empowering sustainable growth, one phase at a time. SHARE Absa is proud to support the continued advancement of South Africa’s mining sector. We successfully supported the syndication of a USD700 million facility for the Ivanplats Phase 2 expansion – one of the country’s largest new mining projects in more than a decade. As mandated lead arranger, bookrunner, and underwriter, our role in this transaction reflects Absa’s deep sector expertise and strong track record in structuring funding solutions for complex projects. This facility supports the next phase of development at Platreef Mine, a project aligned with the growing global importance of critical minerals and South Africa’s long-term mining potential. Based on project expectations, the development is anticipated to contribute to economic activity through employment opportunities, skills development, B-BBEE participation, and responsible resource development. We are invested in your story and invite you to write it with us.
