Platreef Project
The first blast for the box cut for Shaft 2 was successfully completed on April 12, 2018, at the Platreef platinum, palladium, rhodium, gold, nickel, copper and gold mine development project in South Africa. The box cut will be excavated to a depth of 29 metres below surface to allow for the construction of the concrete foundation for the 103-metre-tall headframe that will house Shaft 2’s permanent hoisting facilities. Excavation of the box cut is expected to be complete around the end of 2018.
