Wait till the voters loose their jobs due to loadshedding. Of course according to sources "Gauteng economy will not be affected by loadshedding". This implies that it is just as profitable to not run a mine as it is to actually be producing gold.
I can imagine Tokyo is already on the phone to a whole bunch of people.

LOL, Goldfields is suppose to be M-Power-ed afterall!
Disaster appears to be here, as across the country mines and factories have been forced to shut down because of a lack of electricity.
Public Enterprises Minister Alec Erwin has called the power crisis a "national emergency".
Today, the country's top gold producers, AngloGold Ashanti, Gold Fields, and Harmony, suspended production at all their mines. Platinum giants Anglo Platinum and Impala Platinum have also shut down all their South African operations in response to power shortages. Eskom has reportedly asked 138 industrial users to cut production, including mining houses and large factories.
This is VERY scary. Very bizarre and very scary.
