Black Mountain Mining (BMM) is an operation located at Aggeneys in South Africa’s Northern Cape Province, operating two mining units (Deeps and Swartberg), as well as a processing plant producing copper, lead and zinc concentrates with silver as a by-product.
In 2021, Vedanta Zinc International (VZI) piloted a new waste-to value project at Black Mountain Mine (BMM) operations in Aggeneys, Northern Cape, South Africa in 2021. This is a project to recover iron ore (magnetite) from the BMM tailings. The first production of high-quality iron ore at Fe grade >68%, is expected towards September 2023. |
