Jwaneng mine recrush plant wins Golden Plant Award

The Debswana Jwaneng Mine Recrush Plant received the latest award for safely and consistently achieving high overall equipment effectiveness for the quarter, with no recorded Lost Time Injuries (LTIs). The awards are part of Debswana, De Beers and Anglo American’s drive to improve the productivity and efficiency of their assets by achieving and exceeding global benchmarks.

“Jwaneng mine is a pacesetter in achieving breakthrough results to add ever-increasing value to Botswana and the citizens of this country,” Jwaneng Mine General Manager Koolatotse Koolatotse said in a press release. “We are excited to see the performance of our plants coming out tops. From our Edge 360 Strategy to the Current ODOT Debswana 2024 Strategy we commit to adding more and more value to our stakeholders.” The performance is really testimony to the caliber of Batswana who work in our mining industry. Mr. Koolatotse said praising the Jwaneng Teams. “We thank Anglo American for giving us the opportunity to participate in these awards”, he added.

“This is really exciting as additional beneficiation sites areas were brought in to expand the Golden Plant Awards,” said Anglo American’s Group Head of Processing Andrew Mc Clelland. “It has been encouraging to see how Jwaneng Mine has significantly improved its Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) performance over the past year. As we move into the final quarter, this time of the year is traditionally demanding for our industry.

“While we need to remain focused, this cannot come at the expense of safety, which is always our priority. In Quarter 1 2022 there will be an awards ceremony where the overall winner for 2021 will be announced, which will take place alongside the Golden Shovel Award and others. Well done to Jwaneng Mine and De Beers in achieving this excellent outcome.”

This is not the first time Debswana Jwaneng Mine plants feature in Anglo American P101 dashboards. Jwaneng Modular Plant (JMP) was the overall winner in 2020 Anglo P101 Golden Plants Awards.
