We provide a wide range of services in support of worldwide mining projects and investments of all types and stages.
Blue Crane Group derives its name from the national bird of South Africa, also known as the Paradise Crane. The Blue Crane is culturally significant to the Xhosa people. Traditionally when a man distinguished himself in battle, he was decorated with blue crane feathers in a ceremony called Ukundzabela. Men so honored were known as men of 'trouble'- the implication being that if trouble arose, they would reinstate peace and order.
We carry this philosophy through to our company philosophy, striving to be a pillar of stability and strength for our clients, while acting in the interests of their needs, and creating tailor made solutions, personalized to their particular requirements.
