Introduction

Beeshoek mine is situated approximately 65 km south of the Khumani mine near the town of Postmasburg, in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa. 

The mine previously supplied all of Assmang's iron ore output since 1964. A series of large-scale infrastructure projects had maximized efficiency and productivity on site, which included a full washing and screening plant installed in 1975, and a jig plant to beneficiate off-grade ore, which was completed in 2001. Assmang commissioned a new open cast mine, Beeshoek South, in 1999. 

The combined resources of Beeshoek North and Beeshoek South, five open-cast pits with supporting infrastructure, were needed to produce the annual iron ore output.  By the early 2000's, this output regularly exceeded six million tons a year. As a result, reserves at Beeshoek became severely depleted.

The mine is in the process of expanding the East Pit and proceeding with the preparation for the development of the Village Pit which will significantly expand the life of mine (LOM) of the operation.
Beeshoek mine is now mainly responsible for supplying iron ore to the local South African market, with small volumes being exported.
