State-owned freight logistics group Transnet has confirmed that its manganese export facility at the Port of Port Elizabeth will be transferred to the neighbouring Port of Ngqura by October 2023, where the commodity will continue to serve as an important catalyst for economic growth and development.

During a recent site visit, Nelson Mandela Bay executive mayor Athol Trollip said the municipality would continue to cooperate with Transnet to attract greater manganese export volumes through Ngqura, while minimising the potential negative impacts on livelihoods and the community.

Responding to recent public concern over manganese dust emissions, Port of Port Elizabeth manager Rajesh Dana outlined a five-point manganese management plan formulated by Transnet.
