PTM advances Maseve mine

With its Maseve platinum mine, in South Africa’s North West province, now fully constructed and in the ramp-up phase of production, Platinum Group Metals (PTM) noted on Friday that it had milled 320 297 t of ore at an average grade of about 0.74 g/t by end-May, after introducing a small volume of tonnes from underground mining, along with low-grade development feed. The dual-listed company, which operates in North America and South Africa, noted on Friday that development at the Maseve mine had established 20 ends where the Merensky Reef was exposed, with 18 of these currently working ends.
