Black Chrome Mine

The Black Chrome Mine is a well capitalised developing underground chrome mine having an approximated economically minable reserve in excess of 20 000 000 tons of chrome ore. The mine is located on the farm Mooihoek in the central region of the Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Igneous Complex in South Africas Limpopo province, 100km south east of the town of Polokwane. The Mooihoek farm is underlain by a number of chrome seams, notably the LG6 and LG6A.The company has a mining right that runs until 2033 and that can be renewed thereafter. Of particular interest as a resource is the LG6 reef horizon which dips steadily at between 14 and 16 from its hillside outcrop, with a steady strike direction of 170 to 180. The reefs thickness is consistent, 2.2m thick with 80cm waste parting inbetween. This allows for conventional underground mining from a decline men-and- materials shaft below the reef horizon. Ore grades are generally indicated to be higher than the 42% chrome content benchma...
