JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Aim-listed Petra Diamonds’ Finsch and Kimberley Ekapa Mining joint venture operations are being affected by a labour disruption that started on Monday evening.

Underground and surface mining operations are affected, but plant treatment is continuing at near normal capacity, treating surface material and available stockpiles.

The Cullinan and Koffiefontein mines are also not affected.

Petra is in ongoing discussions with the National Union of Mineworkers, with which it has been negotiating a wage agreement.
