Production has been temporarily stopped at the Vametco vanadium mine, near Brits, in the North West, owing to unprotected industrial action, Aim-listed Bushveld Minerals reported on Friday.
The industrial action, which started on September 5, is in relation to historic legacy issues and compensation structures that precede Bushveld’s acquisition of Vametco in December last year.
Bushveld’s flagship vanadium platform includes a 59.1% controlling interest in Bushveld Vametco Alloys, a primary vanadium mining and processing company; the Mokopane vanadium project and the Brits vanadium project.
