African Rainbow Minerals
African Rainbow Minerals Limited (ARM) is a niche, diversified South African mining and minerals company, founded by Dr Patrice Motsepe and created in its present form in May 2004 through the merger of ARMgold and Harmony assets. ARM is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under the ticker ARI and is headquartered in Sandton, Gauteng. The company mines and beneficiates iron ore, manganese ore and alloys, chrome ore, platinum group metals, nickel and coal through ARM Ferrous, ARM Platinum and ARM Coal, plus a strategic gold investment in Harmony Gold Mining Company — spanning Khumani iron ore, Black Rock manganese, Two Rivers, Modikwa and Bokoni platinum, Nkomati nickel, Goedgevonden coal and Sakura Ferroalloys in Malaysia. ARM sells physical mined commodity, not software: it runs no developer program and publishes no public API, SDK, webhook or machine-readable API contract of any kind.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles African Rainbow Minerals the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — African Rainbow Minerals scores 7.2/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Why this profile is thin
African Rainbow Minerals is a JSE-listed South African mining house that sells iron ore, manganese, chrome, PGMs, nickel and coal, and its only web property is a 30-page WordPress corporate/investor site (arm.co.za) whose sitemap contains no developer, docs, portal, API or integration page at all; every OpenAPI, Swagger, GraphQL, MCP, llms.txt and agent-card path probed on arm.co.za returned a hard 404 with an empty body (a random control path 404s the same way, so these are real misses and not an SPA catch-all), no api./dev./docs./developer./ portal./data./gis./geo./maps. subdomain resolves in DNS on either arm.co.za or arm-online.co.za, and the only machine-readable surface on the domain is the stock WordPress /wp-json/wp/v2 route index, which describes the CMS that renders the investor site rather than any African Rainbow Minerals product, so it was deliberately not registered as a contract.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. African Rainbow Minerals does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

This is an independent, third-party profile of African Rainbow Minerals, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
