Afrimat Nkomati Anthracite Bursary South Africa 2024

 

ABOUT THE BURSARY PROVIDER – AFRIMAT NKOMATI ANTHRACITE

Afrimat is a leading product supplier within the Mining industry. Some of the broad range of products provided by the company include construction materials (blocks, bricks, aggregates, ready mix concrete, and pavers), to industrial materials (lime and lime products) and bulk commodities (anthracite, iron ore, and manganese.)

In Mpumalanga, you will find Nkomati (an anthracite mining company) that shares borders with Eswatini and Mozambique. Nkomati consists of Mangweni underground and Madadeni opencast sections, spanning more than 11 000 hectares. Owing to its location, the mine is able to utilize return roads from the Maputo facilities, and in doing this, logistical costs are reduced with the profit generation for the end user greatly increased.

Afrimat Nkomati Anthracite produces some of the best anthracite (a mineral with a low Sulphur content) within the country. All runs of the excavated mine coals are transported from various mining areas to a central processing facility. There, it is upgraded through a dual-circuit dense medium separation plant.
