Mining Weekly reports that precious metals producer Sibanye Gold has been granted an interdict against a strike by the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) at its Kroondal platinum operations.
The Labour Court on Friday declared any strike action by Amcu relating to the transport issues raised, unlawful and unprotected. The court ordered Amcu to suspend any strike action undertaken by its members. Workers on Friday downed tools reportedly in protest over the appointment of a bus contractor. Kroondal mine is owned by Sibanye Gold, which acquired the asset through its buyout of Aquarius Platinum earlier this year.
