A significant export order for jaw crushers and apron feeders for Kibali Gold Mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been awarded to Osborn by Randgold Resources. Export sales manager Joe Sequeira says that the company netted this order for two 42” x 48” single toggle jaw crushers and two 1.8m x 5m apron feeders based on the proven track record of Osborn’s robust machines in similar underground applications. “We have successfully built and installed the same set up for underground crushing stations at the Somilo Mine in Mali and at Petra Diamonds’ Cullinan Mine. We also recently supplied Petra Diamonds with a further eight Osborn apron feeders for Cullinan Mine’s underground silos and crushing stations. In Ghana, at Anglo Gold’s Obuasi Mine, an Osborn vibrating grizzly feeder and 42” x 48” jaw crusher have been operating successfully underground for about 15 years,” he explains.
