The Minerals Council South Africa is a South African mining-industry employer organisation. Its members include famous South African mining houses such as Anglo American, De Beers, Gold Fields and Harmony.[http://www.bullion.org.za/content/?pid=24&pagename=Members Members - About | Chamber Of Mines] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120322011213/http://www.bullion.org.za/content/?pid=24&pagename=Members |date=2012-03-22 }} In its current form, it was founded in 1968 as the Chamber of Mines, a South African wide organization. Prior to that year, it has its early origins as the Transvaal Chamber of Mines in 1887, then evolved over many years reforming as the Witwatersrand Chamber of Mines in 1889, the Chamber of Mines of the South African Republic from 1897, Transvaal Chamber of Mines from 1902 and lastly from 1953 until 1967 as the Transvaal and Orange Free State Chamber of Mines. On 23 May 2018, the South African Chamber of Mines rebranded themselves as the Minerals Council South Africa.{{Cite web|url=https://www.miningreview.com/sa-chamber-mines-renamed-minerals-council-south-africa/|title=SA Chamber of Mines renamed: Minerals Council South Africa|date=23 May 2018|website=Mining Review South Africa}}
