Southern Africa Resource Watch's new book, South African Mining Companies in Southern Africa assesses the level of corporate governance and social responsibility practiced by South African mining and gas companies operating in five SADC countries: The Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Its main finding is that the behavior of most of these companies leaves much to be desired; it finds that in all five case studies, companies have either not fully respected their development agreements or have not met their tax obligations in full.
