The Mogalakwena Mine is an open pit platinum mine located in the north-western part of South Africa in Mokopane, Limpopo and is one of the world’s largest platinum mines.
Development of the unit for Anglo American Platinum signifies an expansion of ADP’s modular capability and opens the opportunity for the business to offer additional innovative modular solutions to other clients who can take advantage of this project delivery alternative to deliver fast-tracked projects.
Development of the unit redefines modular structures away from conventional thinking that modularisation is associated with temporary or short-term infrastructure. This alternative reduces delays associated with typical site works as well as any remedial work and can be relocated to other sites.
Adhering to strict maintenance and operational requirements and including 330 tons of steel and 170 tons of platework (including tankage), the Modularised High Intensity Flotation Plant will be trial assembled offsite to minimise installation time onsite, thereby reducing the number of personnel needed onsite and the costs associated with onsite works.
Kholo Marine & Minerals is currently engaged to provide Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management (EPCM) services for the detailed engineering design and site construction phases of the project, whilst fabrication and trial assembly is managed though a hybrid EPC goods supply contract.
