Where we come from
The history of Samancor Chrome dates back to 1975, when SA Manganese Ltd. and Amcor Ltd. merged, creating Samancor Chrome as a public company on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. While Amcor was founded in 1937 to exploit mineral reserves for the steel industry and to transform those minerals into ferroalloys, SA Manganese was founded in 1926 to extract manganese ore deposits in the Northern Cape.
Until the minority owners were acquired by the then dominant shareholders, Billiton and Anglo American, in 1998, Samancor remained listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Up until 2004, when bids were requested for the purchase of the Chrome Assets, Samancor Limited’s primary Manganese and Chrome activities were managed as independent businesses. Following the unbundling of the manganese business in 2005 and 2006, the winning bidder, the Kermas Group, purchased Samancor Limited from Billiton and Anglo American and renamed the firm, now owning just the chrome business, Samancor Chrome Limited.
As a result, Samancor Chrome Holdings Proprietary Limited was created as the company’s only shareholder. Terris Chrome, the company’s largest stakeholder, Hanwa/Jogmeg, a Japanese consortium, and Black Empowerment Shareholders, who speak for businesspeople, workers, women in the mining industry, and communities, are the other shareholders in Samancor Chrome Holdings Proprietary Limited.
Through a series of transactions, the latter of which involved Sinosteel, Samancor Chrome was able to successfully acquire the ferrochrome smelting and chrome mining assets from International Ferrometals’ business rescue practitioners as well as the smelting assets from ASA Metals’ business rescue practitioners between the beginning of 2016 and the end of 2017.
