History

Marble was found in the area around 1920. The Marble Lime Company began working the deposits in 1929, and about fifteen varieties of marble occur there. A town was laid out in 1942 under the name Marmerhol ('marble hole'), soon changed to Marble Hall, and it was proclaimed a township in January 1945. The area was formerly part of Mpumalanga. The municipality, called Greater Marble Hall until 2010, is now named after freedom fighter Ephraim Phumuga Mogale.
