Underground incident at RBPlat’s Styldrift project
Shareholders are informed of an incident underground that occurred at the Company’s Styldrift
project earlier today. An acetylene bottle being transported down the Services shaft dislodged
and fell down, resulting in the valve on the bottle breaking off and causing a rapid escape of
acetylene.
Seven employees have been admitted to hospital with minor injuries confirmed, while all those
in the vicinity have been admitted for twenty-four hour observation as a precautionary measure.
All operations at the shaft were temporarily halted after the incident and the Department of
Mineral Resources has been informed. Inspections of the affected area are being undertaken,
however no structural damage to the shaft, infrastructure and underground workings have been
observed. Work will only resume once these have been completed. An update in this regard will
be released by the company in due course.
