MDM Engineering the minerals process and project management company focused on the mining industry, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded the definitive feasibility study for Royal Bafokeng Platinum’s 250,000 tonnes per month Merensky upgrade at its Bafokeng Rasimone Platinum Mine in South Africa.

The BRPM Concentrator, is a joint venture Platinum operation between RBPlat and Anglo American Platinum, and was initially designed to treat 200,000 tpm of Merensky ore.  MDM has also been awarded a second DFS for the stand-alone 100,000 tpm Merensky Concentrator, which is to be erected adjacent to the existing BRPM concentrator. Jeff Stevens, MDM Principal Study Manager, said: “MDM is thrilled to be working on yet another PGM project after the successful construction and commissioning of the Tharisa expansion project in South Africa in 2012. MDM’s PGM execution and study experience will bring a large body of knowledge to the BRPM projects. We look forward to building on our strong working relationship with the stakeholders of these projects.”
