Eckart S. on the Manganese Ore

By

For the past 20 years, Eckart has owned a Private Residence in Humewood.

Eckart estimates the additional monthly maintenance and cleaning costs on this asset, as the result of the manganese ore, to be in the region of R50 per month.

The cost of accelerated wear and tear over the life of Eckart’s asset is estimated to be: R?.

Eckart has this to say about the Manganese Ore pollution from the Port of Port Elizabeth; “In their present situation the Manganese Ore facility and Tank Farm are an eyesore which limit any development in the area. They are situated in a section of the city which has the potential to become a tourist hub in association with developments in the harbour itself, as well as the adjacent Kings Beach. Locating them at the Coega Harbour will also facilitate the movement of Manganese Ore and oil storage.”
