Rustenburg employs about 51,500 people and accounts for almost half of Implats’ total production. During the shutdown, the company will conduct workplace inspections, targeted training and a mass employee engagement session. It will also appoint independent specialists to independently assess its safety systems and recommend improvements. Implats said the impact on production will be assessed once operations resume.\n“Our aspiration is that every employee returns home safely every day,” the company said.\nThe suspension highlights the safety challenges confronting South Africa’s deep-level mining industry, where some of the world’s oldest platinum mines are also among the deepest and most expensive to operate. \nSouth African producers including Implats and Sibanye-Stillwater (JSE: SSW) (NYSE: SBSW) account for most global platinum production, supplying a metal used in catalytic converters to reduce harmful emissions from gasoline and diesel vehicles.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-2","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.47.1","shortVersion":"4.47.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2654460320","isCrawlerRequest":true}
