JSE-listed Mantengu Mining has successfully commissioned the first of three chrome processing plants at its Langpan mining operation, in Limpopo.

The commissioning of the first plant follows 18 months of preparatory work, including a competent person’s report and the appointment of Jacques Pretorius as Langpan’s GM.

Pretorius has more than 30 years’ experience in the mining industry and, notably, helped reopen Northam Platinum’s Eland platinum mine, which is located on the western limb of the Bushveld Complex.

The Langpan chrome reserve is estimated at 2.17-million tonnes, which underpins the operations’ valuation at R851-million.

Mantengu group CEO Mike Miller says the initial chrome plant was originally designed to accommodate a production throughout of 30 000 t a month, or 70 t/h. The commissioning of the new chrome plant has, however, enhanced production capacity to a throughput rate of 36 000 t a month, or 100 t/h.
