South African miner Harmony Gold has promised a full investigation of a mine related incident that fatally injured an employee at its Tshepong South (Phakisa) near Welkom in the Free State.
CEO Peter Steenkamp says the incident, after an extended period without fatalities, is a reminder of the importance of safety.
Harmony along with its industry peers supported the Mineral Council South Africa’s annual national health and safety in mining day this month.
