In 1933, the company’s name changed to Eastern Transvaal Consolidated Mines (ETC), and in 1948 ETC became a member of the Anglovaal group. The life of the Sheba mine began with the discovery of Bray’s Golden Quarry, the first 13 000 t of ore yielding 50 000 oz of gold. Sheba and its adjacent workings changed hands quite frequently before being acquired by ETC in 1937. Mining at the Fairview mine started in 1886 as a number of small operations. These continued intermittently until 1955 when they were consolidated under Federale Mynbou.
