For the past 2 years, Johan has owned a Private Residence in Humewood.
Johan estimates the additional monthly maintenance and cleaning costs on this asset, as the result of the manganese ore, to be in the region of R800 per month.
The cost of accelerated wear and tear over the life of Johan’s asset is estimated to be: R1500000.
Johan has this to say about the Manganese Ore pollution from the Port of Port Elizabeth; “Severe noise pollution from all the operational sirens day and night. Toxic manganese dust inhalation especially when the easterly wind is blowing.”
