Africa’s largest mining company, Bravura A.S., has commenced operations in Sierra Leone and is currently seeking geologists, mining engineers, and mechanical engineers.
Country Representative for Bravura Sierra Leone, Mr. Fassally Tarawally, has requested interested parties to drop off their CVs at his 10 Walpole Street office in Freetown. He said BRAVURA Mining Consortium’s operations in Zimbabwe have gathered momentum through the acquisition of platinum mining machinery and the manufacture of the dense media separation plant for the lithium mine.
The separation plant was manufactured by Manhattan Corporation of South Africa, and the machinery and equipment are already in that country, awaiting shipment to Zimbabwe once all necessary approvals and ongoing civil works at Kamativi are completed.
The company’s ventures in Zimbabwe are the proposed Bravura platinum mine in Selous, the processing of the old tin mining dumps at Kamativi for lithium, and the iron ore mine in Manhize, which are at different stages of implementation.
Bravura has since completed exploration work at its platinum mine in Selous and is now conducting feasibility studies ahead of actual mining.
The lithium processing in Kamativi is expected to come online next year following the completion of the separation plant and civil works. The Kamativi dump contains around 25 million tonnes of material, and this translates to an annual capacity of 70,000 tonnes a year of spodumene concentrate.
