Northam Platinum has reported on the progress at the project.
South-eastern portion of the western limb of the Bushveld Complex, near Brits, in South Africa’s North West province.Northam acquired the Eland mine from Glencore for R175-million in 2017.
The operations comprised the development of the underground mine on a hybrid array of conventional breast stoping and mechanised ore transport using hydropower technology imported from Northam’s Zondereinde mine. Maroelabult is situated immediately west of Eland, and underground development from the Kukama decline has connected with that of the Maroelabult decline, which is aiding the provision of underground services, as well as the build-up of mineable reserve.
To date, the decline systems have been advanced more than 2 500 m, which is on plan, and have accessed eight strike drives – Northam requires 11 strike drives for steady-state production.
