JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Aim-listed Edenville Energy has started producing washed coal for sale at its Rukwa coal project, in Tanzania.

This followed the completion of the commissioning and testing of the wash plant, which started late in September.

“The start of production of washed coal is a major milestone for Edenville. It is just over eight months since we decided to proceed with development of the Rukwa coal project and I am delighted that we have been able to move into production so quickly, despite some challenges along the way,” CEO Rufus Short said in a statement on Monday.

The wash plant is now processing material to fulfil coal orders that have already been placed, with expectations that production levels will steadily increase over the next few months, reaching at least 10 000 t/m by January 2018.

“We look forward to providing further updates on the progress of the project in the coming weeks, including with regard to coal sales and contracts,” he said.
