Cementation Africa to Upgrade Mindola Shaft for Nkana Mine Production in Zambia
Cementation Africa is set to enhance the Mindola shaft at Mopani Copper Mines in Zambia, aimed at improving efficiencies and extending Nkana mine's life. The project includes constructing permanent headgear, installing winders, and implementing an overland conveyor system. A 3D scan will assess shaft alignment and structural integrity. The work also involves sliping the bottom 500 meters of the shaft and equipping it for production. Cementation Africa emphasizes safety, having achieved over eight million fatality-free shafts.

Cementation Africa is enhancing the Mindola shaft for Mopani Copper Mines in Zambia to extend the Nkana mine's operational life and improve mining efficiencies. The project involves constructing permanent headgear, commissioning winders, and installing an overland conveyor system.
A comprehensive 3D scan will determine misalignment and structural reinforcement needs. The bottom 500 meters of the shaft will be sliped and lined to ensure safe conveyance. Cementation Africa has a strong safety record, achieving over eight million fatality-free shafts and contributing to community initiatives, including a school for the deaf.
