EVRAZ Highveld Steel & Vanadium (OTCMKTS:HGVLY) is a leading integrated steel and vanadium producer based in eMalahleni, Mpumalanga province of South Africa. The company’s core operations include blast furnace ironmaking, steelmaking, hot-rolled and cold-rolled steel production and vanadium recovery. Its multi-stage direct reduction and oxygen steelmaking facilities generate a range of steel products from construction-grade plate and sheet to specialised high-strength alloys, supported by a dedicated ferroalloys plant for vanadium slag production.
Founded in the late 1960s as part of South Africa’s state-owned steel industry, the facility was privatised and acquired by Evraz Group in 2005, adopting its current name. EVRAZ Highveld’s production process integrates raw material extraction, iron reduction and steel conversion on a single site, enabling efficient vanadium recovery from converter slag. Over the decades, the company has modernised its rolling mills and implemented environmental controls to align with international emissions standards.
Serving both domestic and export markets, EVRAZ Highveld supplies steel products to the construction, engineering, automotive and energy sectors across Africa, Europe and Asia. Its vanadium products, including ferrovanadium and vanadium pentoxide, are key inputs for high-performance steel alloys, rechargeable batteries and aerospace materials. The plant’s strategic location near major transportation networks supports cost-effective delivery to regional and global customers.
As a subsidiary of Evraz Group S.A., EVRAZ Highveld operates under the oversight of Evraz’s senior management team headquartered in Luxembourg, with day-to-day leadership provided by a local executive board. The company continues to focus on operational efficiency, product diversification and sustainable growth while leveraging Evraz Group’s global steel and mining expertise.
