ZBS PLANT ANNOUNCEMENT
The commissioning of Palabora Mining Company's Zirconia Base Sulphate (ZBS)
plant, due on 29 January, has had to be postponed due to a fire in the
plant.
The fire, the causes of which are under investigation, damaged the middle
section of the plant. Estimates at this stage are that production will be
restored in 2 - 3 months' time. The contract project managers, who have just
completed the ZBS upgrade, are still on site along with their sub-
contractors. This will no doubt facilitate the rehabilitation of the plant
in the shortest possible time.
Palabora Mining Company is in discussion with ZBS customers with regard to
the supply of the product.
