Project manager John Menasce of TWP says, "This advanced workshop will be used for benchmarking others for the next 20 to 30 years. It has been designed to accommodate full maintenance activities of a fleet of 50 trackless vehicles, including six 30 tonne dump trucks and six LHDs. "The workshop is well illuminated and safe and is …
Nchwaning is a semi-oxidized ore, containing various Mn2O3-oxides, hematite and calcite. Furthermore, Comilog and Nchwaning differ in physical properties, such as porosity. Due to these differences, the ores show different reduction behaviors, and will have different effects on energy efficiency and gas characteristics.

The Nchwaning Manganese Mine, located in the Northern Cape province of South Africa, was first discovered in 1950. It operates as an underground mine and began production in 1970. The mine utilizes a room and pillar mining method, with underground workings consisting of one shaft and one incline. At its maximum depth, the mine reaches 455 ...

Prereduction of Nchwaning manganese ore was investigated by isothermal reduction between 600 and 800 °C to optimize the conditions for industrial pretreatment of manganese ores. Experiments were conducted in CO/CO2 gas mixtures with and without hydrogen at two different oxygen partial pressures. Ore in the size fraction 9.52–15 mm …
