PGMs and chrome – a focus for MTE in April 2024

Mining and Technical Exhibitions (MTE) is back in the western limb chrome and platinum belt for a high impact combo showcase on 9 and 11 April 2024, in Mooinooi and Rustenburg respectively.

Andrew Macnamara, operations director at the company, explains, “The PGMs and chrome sectors of the industry are placed high on the MTE agenda due to the fact that South Africa is currently the biggest producer of PGMs  in the world;     PGMs industry sales are the largest contributor to total mining sales in the country;     and the chrome sector is strong despite major Transnet freight challenges, with South Africa being the world’s largest producer of chromite ore, having produced over an estimated 19 million tonnes in 2023 per the Minerals Council South Africa.”

Mzila Mthenjane, CEO of the Minerals Council at the recent Mining Indaba also noted that, “Global inflation seems to have turned the corner, and policy interest rates are expected to follow inflation as we move through the year.     This should support global economic growth and underpin commodity prices,” which will positively impact the PGMs and other sectors in the economy.
MTE therefore hosts its biggest show of the year in Rustenburg.
 
On 9 April 2024, between 13:00 and 17:00, the Mooinooi Golf Club is the venue for MTE’s first leg of the combo tour.    The area has significant platinum, chrome and ferrochrome reserves and is home to various mines that produce the minerals, including Tharisa Mine.
