CASE STUDY. Impala Platinum mine accident in South Africa kills 11.
On 28 November 2023 an accident at a platinum mine in South Africa has
killed 11 workers and injured 75, the mine's operator says. Impala Platinum
chief executive Nico Muller described it as the "darkest day" in the company's
history. The firm said the accident involved a winding rope connected to a cage-
style lift which hoists people up and down the mine shaft. The lift started
moving downwards unexpectedly, it added. South Africa has some of the
world's deepest mines. It is a leading producer of platinum, gold and other raw
materials.
There have long been concerns about safety conditions on its mines, but the
situation has improved since white-minority rule ended in 1994. The latest
accident took place on Monday at a mine in Rustenburg, about 100km (60
miles) north-west of Johannesburg. The deaths bring to 55 the number of
fatalities on South African mines this year. "This is a terrible blow to our
ambition of ending 2023 with fewer fatalities than last year when there were 49
fatalities, the lowest on record, and the continuation of our journey towards
zero harm," said Mzila Mthenjane, the chief executive of Minerals Council
South Africa, the main representative of mining firms in the country. Mineral
Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe has visited the mine.
