Leon Coetzer, Chief Executive Officer, says: "

 

I am particularly pleased with the performance of our Hernic operation. The Hernic operation continues to set new benchmarks quarter on quarter with May setting a new record high delivering an impressive 2101 PGM ounces. At the current production rates we are expecting to increase the production of PGM ounces by more than 20% during Q2 2018 compared with Q1 2018.

 

We have awarded the transport contract to commence with the delivery of ourPlatCro PGM material to Northam Platinum for the recovery of the PGM's..

The construction of our Kabwe project is underway following the reinstatement of the mining licence by the Zambian authorities. Our initial focus is on the implementation of the zinc recovery circuit. I will provide further details and clarity on the project following my presentation to the Zambian Mining Department later this month.

 

At DCM we have commenced with the implementation of the hydro-mining circuit to replace the mechanical reclamation of the tailings material. This switch-over forms part of the installation of the integrated fine chrome recovery circuit which is the pre-cursor to the platinum recovery circuit at DCM."
