Leaders of the National Union of Mineworkers declined to comment as they left the Chamber of Mines offices after 3 1/2 hours of talks. ^ Licbenbcrg said there was no formal agreement by 4 the chamber that the roughly 44,000 miners fired during the strike would be rehired. He said this was a 2 matter to be resolved by the individual companies. 2< According to Licbenbcrg, the union accepted an offer made by the chamber last Tuesday, slightly improving vacation pay and death benefits. That offer ^ had been overwhelmingly rejected last Wednesday in voting by the rank-and-file. > jLicbenbcrg said wages, which had been the focus of ^ the dispute, were not discussed Sunday. Union officials had said they lowered their wage si increase demand from 30 percent to 27, but the e I chamber refused to discuss altering the 15 percent to a ~23.4 percent raises it began paying after pre-strike-7~ i negotiations broke off in mid-July. ' ^ I Licbenbcrg declined to characterize the settlement as y a victory for the industry, saying: "Both parties realize what the costs of a strike are .... Both sides have learned to respect each other." st Chamber President Naas Steenkamp, citing violence, , lost income and mass dismissals, said, "The cost of t the strike has been high." g< i But he said the strike may have given each side a more realistic perception of the other. C1 1 "The union has learned that the industry is capable vj of setting the limits, sticking to them and showing a n) 1 lotofUiclcrmination in the process." he said.
