Pensioners board a patient transport vehicle to take them home after visiting a clinic built by the Royal Bafokeng Nation in Phokeng in the North West Province October 12, 2012. While South African mining companies try to halt the spread of deadly labour strife, a kingdom that partly governs a small stretch of the country's platinum belt has managed to transform mineral wealth into social stability. The Royal Bafokeng Nation has funnelled money it earns from its Royal Bafokeng Platinum company into a mini sovereign wealth fund that provides cash for schools, clinics and infrastructure.
