SPECIALIST MINING CONTRACTING PROJECTS

Due to the maturity of some mining complexes in South Africa and the changes in the attractiveness of certain commodities, open pits now encroach old, historically mined underground works.

We are experts in defining effective mining methods to mine through these works safely and economically and are ideally positioned to execute these methods based on a contract mining approach. Ukwazi also designs and mobilises appropriately in order to mitigate the risk of existing or impending sinkholes.

In addition, we plan and contract mine old mineral residue deposits for rehabilitation or where they contain the economic value, and also conduct dredge mining on a contract basis in order to clean old pollution control dams. Here, we are able to reprocess and create capacity on operational residue mine facilities. In Mpumalanga and in the Northern Cape, Ukwazi partners and supports local SMME mining contracting companies to help them grow into trusted mining contractors.

We service the industry’s demand for outsourced mining contracting solutions that optimise operations, reduce costs, enhance safety and add value.

SMME SUPPORT

This service offering, powered by Ukwazi Operations, focuses on developing local mining SMMEs; ensuring that they have adequate knowledge and capacity to deliver quality mining contract solutions.
