Chrome and platinum

Mining Equipment HVAC in Kroondal

Local context

Kroondal, immediately south-east of Rustenburg, combines platinum operations with established chrome mining and processing. The area carries a high density of mobile plant — loaders, ADTs and excavators — working shallow pits and stockpile areas.

Working conditions here

Chrome handling produces a dense, abrasive dust that packs condenser fins far faster than typical mine dust, so condenser cleaning and filter regimes here are deliberately more frequent.

Typical work in Kroondal

  • Wheel loaders and excavators
  • Chrome plant HVAC
  • Workshop ventilation
  • Weighbridge and security offices
