Ya Rona shaft: closed on section 54 order until further notice
The mine's East section had already been reopened last week. Kloof Driefontein is one of three Gold Fields mining operations in South Africa. It produced 1,1-million ounces of gold last year, making it the company's largest mining operation, Business Day says.
4-traders.com news portal reports that the first full shift went down with the morning shift, following the re-opening of KDC East on Tuesday last week. The Ya Rona Shaft, which remains subject to a Section 54 Order issued by the Department of Mineral Resources, will stay closed until further notice. The fire at the Ya Rona Shaft has not yet been extinguished and proto teams continue to attend the scene.
