BlueRock Diamonds PLC said Monday operations at the Kareevlei
diamond mine in South Africa were suspended after the South African
Department of Mineral Resources and Energy identified
contraventions.
The London-listed diamond producer didn't disclosed further
information regarding the contraventions, but said most of them are
related with the processing plant.
The site is expected to be operational by Jan. 27, after the
completion of corrective actions to be finalized by Jan. 24. The
activities will remain suspended until the contraventions are
rectified.
"It is emphasized that the contraventions which were identified
do not place employees or other workers on the site at risk, and
management is of the opinion that the instruction to suspend
operations is not appropriate given the nature of the findings," it
added.
The company said it has sufficient ore on the stockpile to
ensure that there is no disruption to operations once the plant is
restarted.
