AFARAK GROUP INVESTS IN PRODUCTION OF METALLURGICAL GRADE CHROME ORE CONCENTRATE
Stock Exchange Release
Afarak’s subsidiaries are currently under commissioning of a chrome ore processing plant at their Vlakpoort Mine, with the first concentrate expected during the last week of October. The plant has a capacity of 10.000 tons of concentrate per month, producing a metallurgical grade 40% chrome concentrate.
The plant will initially operate for 12hours per day driven by green energy, as it is equipped with a Photo Voltaic solar plant, and batteries which allows the washing activities to be independent from the power grid. As a back-up, diesel generators have also been installed.
The Vlakpoort Mine is situated on the Northern part of the western limb of the Bushveld complex in South Africa. The property has a minimum proven resource of 6.656m tons of chrome and 330,314 ounces of PGM. This includes the underground potential. The resource consists of the LG1-6, MG1-4 and the UG1- 2 and Merensky reefs.
Guy Konsbruck, CEO of Afarak Group, said, "Afarak continues on its path to further improve its value chain and increase its production of Chrome ore concentrate. At a later stage, the washing plant can be completed with a PGM recovery plant. I Congratulate our South African team for the professional and timely implementation of this project. We are particularly thrilled to have this new plant operate mostly on solar power.”
