FAQS

Got Questions? We Have Answers.

Q: How does MineVendorHub ensure local-content validity under the Mining Charter?

We verify every supplier against South African official repositories. We validate company registration directly with the CIPC, require active SARS Tax PIN statuses, verify registered B-BBEE certificates or sworn affidavits, and cross-reference geographic locations against host community maps surrounding active mineral operations.

Q: Who qualifies as a Level 1 vs Level 5 supplier?

Tiers represent size and capacity. Level 1 corresponds to emerging micro-enterprises. Level 3 covers experienced operations handling up to R2m. Level 5 strategic suppliers represent established businesses with verifiable contracts above R5m and immaculate reference ratings.

Q: What is the fee model for Mining Groups?

Mine operators pay a flat monthly subscription of R9,900. This provides unrestricted access to the local search tool, B-BBEE breakdown, host community verification files, and the Mining Charter report export tool. Posting a new tender / Request for Quotation (RFQ) on the vendor boards costs R89 per request.

Q: Can mining suppliers register for free?

Yes. Basic registration is 100% free for all South African vendors. Vetting, priority scorecard badges, and active bid alert subscriptions can be activated on the premium vendor plan (R350/month).
