Dual-listed DiamondCorp is expecting a ten-fold increase in its capacity to haul ore out from its Lace mine, near Kroonstad, following the installation and commissioning of a 400 t/h underground conveyor belt system. “Not only does the conveyor belt provide Lace with the ability to increase development rates, the cost of future development will decrease in the absence of the need for trucks for waste hauling, as the underground loaders will now empty their buckets directly onto the end of the conveyor belt, which keeps getting extended as the development goes deeper,” CEO Paul Loudon commented.
