Reuters writes that Australian coal miner TerraCom reported on Friday that a contractor had died at its South African mine on 6 May, leading to an 11-day halt in operations at the time.
In a production report, the company disclosed that the fatality occurred at its 49%-owned New Clydesdale Colliery mine, but did not give details about how it happened. TerraCom added that coal sale deliveries were delayed in early July due to the political unrest in SA. Earlier in the month, the country witnessed its worst violence in years after protests broke out following the jailing of ex-president Jacob Zuma.
