Lephalale or Ellisras is a coal mining town in the Limpopo province of South Africa immediately east of the Waterberg Coalfield. The town was established as Ellisras in 1960 and named after the original farm owners, Patrick Ellis and Piet Erasmus. In 2002, Ellisras was renamed Lephalale by the provincial government of Limpopo, after the main river that crosses the municipality. Lephalale is divided into three main subsections, Lephalale, Onverwacht and Marapong. Lephalale is derived from the Setswana meaning "to flow".
Late Iron Age cattle posts belonging to the Letsibogo ceramic facies have been found in the area. Some rock engravings at Nelsonkop have been recorded.
The name Ellisras origins from a combination of the surnames of Patric Ellis and Piet Erasmus who settled in the 1930s on the farm Waterkloof 502LQ. Since the opening of the main route between Vaalwater and Stockpoort during 1929 a railway bus stop developed on the farm. The central function of the newly established nodes became more evident and other facilities such as schools, churches and shops were established on the farm. Subdivision of the farm started and due to the specific locality of the river, all newly created portions have a river frontage which had a definite influence on the urban form/shape of Ellisras today.

Earlier today, ER24's CEO, COO, Northern Region Manager and Polokwane Branch Manager were driving on the R518 when approximately 30 kilometres outside of Lephalale they came across a a single vehicle collision. The driver of the vehicle, a man in his 30's, appears to have lost control of the vehicle and it then left the road and collided into a tree. The front of the vehicle and passenger side where the man in his 50's was seated, was extensively damaged and crushed. They immediately started treatment on the injured men and because of poor reception and cell phone signal the branch manager had to drive approximately 15 kilometres to be able to call out to get more resources to the scene. Fortunately they were able to contact the local AMS and they sent out their medical helicopter to the ...
