Deposit Type

  • Sedimentary


Summary:

The project area is underlain by the Kalahari Manganese Field (KMF), the largest known land-based manganese deposit in the world It is the largest known land-based manganese deposit in the world. The KMF is comprised of five erosional relicts of the manganese bearing Hotazel Formation of the Paleoproterozoic Transvaal Supergroup. The manganese ore is of sedimentary origin.

The Hotazel Formation, which is the host rock to the manganese ores of the KMF, is composed of three (3) symmetrical iron formation hematite-lutite-braunite-lutite sedimentary cycles that can be traced across the entire KMF and that display a remarkably uniform fine-scale litho-stratigraphy. Geological surveys for the project have indicated other minerals found in the Kalahari Manganese Field formation which include sand, clay, limestone, tillite, quartzite, red and grey shales, dolomite, iron ore.


Mining Methods

  • Bord-and-pillar


Summary:

The mine is an underground mine and the ore body is accessed by means of a twin decline, one of which accommodates the conveyor belt and the employees, material. The second decline is mainly used as the return airway and serve as the statuary second outlet. The ore is crushed underground following which, a conveyor belt system transport the ore out of the mine via one of the twin declines to a surface stockpile.

The mining method is bord and pillar stoping.
