(CAJ News) – MINING operations at South Africa’s multimillion dollar Garatau Platinum Mine, the latest player in the world’s biggest producer of the precious metal, will begin towards the end of May.
An investment of around $700 million (over R9,88 billion) has been allocated for the Limpopo-located mine operated by local developer, Nkwe Platinum Limited, and its sole shareholder, the Zijin Mining Group, a leading Chinese multinational mining group.
Mogokare Richard Seleke, the Nkwe Director of Governance and Stakeholder Relations, disclosed the imminent development of the box cut.
It is cut built to supply a secure and safe entrance as access to a slope to an underground mine.
