Green iron-ore is a great South African export opportunity, Joburg Indaba hears

Making green iron-ore for exportation is a great opportunity, South Africa’s Joburg Indaba heard on Thursday, October 8, when Kearney South Africa energy partner Frances Phillips drew attention to South Africa’s renewable-energy, iron-ore and platinum group metals (PGM) endowments in urging that South Africa’s green hydrogen thoughts extend beyond green hydrogen molecules alone. In response to a question during a panel discussion chaired by NOA Group CEO Karel Cornelissen, Phillips said: “There’s opportunity for us to bring the renewable energy that can make green hydrogen together with some of the mineral deposits that we have.”
