About the Municipality
The Place of Coal — the energy heart of Mpumalanga.
Overview
A city built on coal & energy
Established in 1903 and renamed eMalahleni — "the place of coal" — in 2006, the municipality covers eMalahleni, Kwa-Guqa, Ga-Nala and Ogies. It sits within the Nkangala District in Mpumalanga, linked by the N4, N12 and the Maputo Corridor.
