Rustenburg picks up, Marula turns, fatalities sadden – Implats

Improved efficiencies and production levels at the Impala Rustenburg mine coincided with a turnaround at the Marula mine in the three months to September 30, Impala Platinum Holdings (Implats) said on Tuesday, when it expressed disappointment at five fatalities at Impala Rustenburg and one at Marula. “Implats remains committed to ensuring zero harm. Management remains resolute in leading through direct engagement with all our stakeholders, including each employee in the organisation, the leadership of our representative unions and government,” the company, headed by CEO Nico Muller, said in a release to Creamer Media’s Mining Weekly Online.
