Arnot Opco

Arnot Colliery, which was owned by Exxaro, produced thermal coal for over 40 years, using various mining methods, predominantly bord-and-pillar, open-casting and short-walling between 1995 and 2005. Arnot had a 40-year coal-supply agreement (CSA) with Eskom, supplying the adjacent Arnot power station by means of a conveyor belt. This contract ended on 31 December 2015, which resulted in the implementation of the rehabilitation and closure program. The mine’s closure resulted in significant job losses, with over 1000 retrenchments and a negative impact to the surrounding communities. A group of 8 retrenched employees embarked on a process in 2016 to investigate and consider the possibility of acquiring, reopening and operating the mine as an employee led empowerment transaction, re-creating employment opportunities for their retrenched co-workers and entrepreneurial opportunities for the community. This culminated into the establishment of Arnot Opco, which took effective ownership of Arnot Colliery in February 2020. The shareholding is broad-based and include all the 1038 affected employees who were in Exxaro service on the 31 December 2015 and is technically and financially supported by the JSE Listed Wescoal Holdings who effectively owns 45% of Arnot Opco.
