South African manufacturer Scaw last week broke ground on the site of its proposed new 50 000 t/y grinding media manufacturing plant in Tema, Ghana, where it already has a local sales presence. The $40-million facility, being built in partnership with Ghana’s Jospong and South Africa’s Guma groups, is expected to become operational by mid-2015.

Scaw owns 70% of the project and Jospong and Guma the balance. The plant will make use of the same roll form technology that is used at the South African facility of Scaw, which is a major supplier of grinding media to the South African mining industry.
