JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – JSE and ASX-listed Aquarius Platinum has suspended operations at the Kroondal mine's Kwezi shaft following the death of a contract employee in a fall-of-ground incident on Monday morning.

There were no other injuries. 

An investigation into the cause of the accident would start on Monday, and management said it was in close communication with employee associations and unions, as well as the Department of Mineral Resources.
