Within a week of concluding its acquisition of Sibanye-Stillwater’s West Rand Tailings Retreatment Project (WRTRP), to be known going forward as Far West Gold Recoveries (FWGR), DRDGOLD has begun work on the first phase of development – upgrading of the Driefontein 2 plant to process tailings from the Driefontein 5 dump at a rate of between 400 000 and 600 000tpm and depositing the residue on the Driefontein 4 tailings dam. DRDGOLD CEO Niel Pretorius broke ground to mark the start of civils on Monday, 6 August, and within two days – by Wednesday 8 August - the first 100 metres of the pipeline from the Driefontein 5 dump to the Driefontein 2 plant had been installed. First production from Phase 1 is expected during the first quarter of calendar 2019.
DRDGOLD’s Ergo operation has poured first gold following conversion of the Brakpan plant from electro-winning to zinc precipitation. Watch the video.
