The multibillion rand Nyanza Light Metals project represented an opportunity for South Africa to demonstrate that Africans could transform the continent from being a mere exporter of low value primary raw materials to becoming an exporter of value-added products, said Nyanza chief executive Donovan Chimhandamba.
He was speaking on Thursday at the launch that followed the commencement of construction of the first phase of the Nyanza Light Metals Technical Services Centre in March this year.
The Technical Services Centre would produce sufficient titanium dioxide pigment volumes for its customers to use in their manufacturing processes, while bulk volumes would be produced by the main plant coming in the next phases.
