http://veldpond.co.za/page7.html

The Iron workshop of the TGMC mine at Pilgrim's Rest. Alex Marshall gave the Mint Team complete access to the workshop, the foundry and the essayer's laboratory. The workshop of the Pilgrim's Rest mine was the only workshop within miles and served all the mines in the area. Therefore it was better equipped than most other workshops in the country. The only problem was that the mine bosses had put the hydroelectric power stations, Jubilee and Clewer, at Pilgrim's Rest. Permission for establishing a govern...

MINING PROPERTY LEFT BEHIND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. Hugh Hughes was appointed as General Manager of TGME after the war and on 14 July 1902 he reported as follows after visiting the mine at Pilgrim's Rest:. The machinery in the workshop is in splendid order. The Boers used our punching machines for the minting of a few hundred 1902 sovereigns. The three large safes inside the strong room were not touched in any way. The cash balance of £137-0s-10d was intact. Cartwright, AP. Valley of Gold.

8 PROCESS OF MAKING VELDPOND. 81 Purification of the gold. To comply with the requirements of the ZAR Coinage Act (Act no 14 of 1891) Cooney had to purify the gold to 24 carat. For a better product, silver was added and for which 11/6 was paid. The team activated the mine's coal furnace house and heated the gold in a crucible to a melting point of ± 1064° Celsius. 83 Pouring the gold.

HOW MANY VELDPOND WERE MINTED? Cooney mentions in a letter to his niece that 530 coins were made :. When peace was proclaimed between the British and the Boers (papa will explain to you) we had only fairly started to make the crude coins of which enclosed is one, and all we made when the British supplanted the Boers in the Transvaal by treaty was 530 Coins. Reid says in his war memoirs that 400-500 pound were distributed amongst the Boers. Two very interesting financial documents. The expenses paid (10 M...

The first site in the history of South African archaeology where gold objects were excavated, was Mapungubwe in Limpopo province, dating to 1,000 - 1,300 AD. Together with Great Zimbabwe and Thulamela, Mapungubwe formed part of a complex trading culture through which the gold of Africa reached Arabia, India and Phoenicia. A claim was 150 x 150 Cape feet (47 x 47 metres) and the boundaries - as defined by the corner pegs - were religiously observed by neighbouring claim owners. By the 1880's alluvial gold...
