Its first leader was Cyril Ramaphosa, under whom it grew rapidly, winning bargaining recognition from the Chamber of Mines in 1983.[1]: 51  Abakɔsɛm Wɔtseew nkabɔmukuw no wɔ afe 1982 mu dɛ edwumayɛfo nkabɔmukuw a wotu sika kɔkɔɔ.

The strike was spurred on by a rise in worker fatalities from 2006 to 2007, despite a government plan in October to reduce fatalities. Less than 5% of mineworkers came to work on that day.[5]
