Welcome to Creamer Media’s Resources Watch, a weekly video round-up of the events and people making and shaping the news in the mining industry.

This week:

Royal Bafokeng Platinum studying feasibility of 30 MW solar power plant

Strong investment demand sustained platinum in the fourth quarter of 2020

And, Royal Bafokeng Platinum engaged in tailings, concentrator, conveyor projects

 

Royal Bafokeng Platinum is conducting a study into the economic feasibility of building a 30 MW modular photovoltaic solar energy plant at the BRPM mine.

RBPlat executive head of operations Neil Carr

 

For the third consecutive quarter, platinum remained in a deficit, at 170 000 oz, in the fourth quarter of 2020 as strong demand in the automotive, industrial and jewellery sectors and sustained strong investment demand for platinum outstripped constrained supply.

WPIC research director Trevor Raymond

 

Royal Bafokeng Platinum has tailings, concentrator and overland conveyor projects under way, which are aimed at achieving organic growth as well as long-term sustainability.
