Original Note:
The Musk family opposed apartheid and Errol Musk, Elon's estranged father, reportedly owned a small stake in an emerald mine for a short period until 1989 in Zambia, not in apartheid South Africa. There's no evidence it brought the Musks wealth or funded future enterprises. https://www.snopes.com/news/2022/11/17/elon-musk-emerald-mine/
