The Bafokeng Rasimone platinum concentrator
Bateman Minerals & Industrial Limited (BMI) is engaged on a project
for Amplats Management Services (Pty) Ltd to establish a 200 000 tonne/month
concentrator at the Bafokeng Rasimone Platinum Mine, near Rustenburg,
Northern Province, RSA.
The project involves the design and engineering of the milling and flotation
plant and associated infrastructure for the concentrator, starting with
the raw ore feed from the stockpile and ending with the concentrate
to be fed into the transportation system to the Waterval Smelter.
The contract for the project, awarded in December 1998, arose out of
a study completed by BATEMAN in August 1998. The cost for the project
management, associated engineering and design services to be provided
by BMI is estimated at R24M.
The bulk of the project team has been drawn from the team which recently
completed the EPCM project for Amplats, at Potgietersrust Platinum Mine,
a similar scope of work.
