[miningmx.com] – THE earlier and stronger levels of employees returning to
work was the reason Lonmin was able to reach full ramp-up of operations by September following the five-and-a-half months strike, the platinum producer said.
“Tonnes mined in both August and September 2014 exceeded production reported for the comparable months in 2013 which were one million tonnes in August 2013
and 1.04 million tonnes in September 2013,” the company said in an announcement.
“From August onwards, Lonmin has achieved steady-state production at normal levels,” it said. Lonmin is due to provide its fourth quarter production figures on November 10.
