Published: 29 Mar 24
Original equipment manufacturer for the mineral processing industry Multotec is making excellent headway in putting its SX10 spiral separator – which has been subjected to development processes over the past five years – to efficient use in local and international coal mining industries to prove its “value-add” bona fides, says Multotec process and applications engineering GM Christina Ramotsabi. The company’s recent projects include test work that has been conducted in South Africa, whereby Multotec sourced coal materials from various South African customers’ collieries to showcase the SX10 spiral separator’s ability to produce low-cut density coal product, which, in turn, leads to the production of a higher-quality coal for miners and processors.

TRIUMPHANT SHAFT SINKING
Reaching a final depth of 1 200 m, the new ventilation shaft sunk by Murray & Roberts Cementation at Palabora Mining Company is a triumph in many respects Last blast of new ventilation shaft celebrated
Published: 29 Mar 24
Underground mining contractor Murray & Roberts Cementation and its client Palabora Mining Company (PMC) completed the last blast in the development of the miner’s new ventilation shaft at PMC’s Lift II project, in Limpopo, which took its depth to a final 1 200 m below surface, in January. The 8.5-m-diameter upcast ventilation shaft – which holed through to an already developed return airway at depth – is vital to PMC’s Lift II project, which is intended to develop access to ore resources sufficient to extend the life of this copper mine beyond 2040.
