FAT ROCK PROVIDES SUPPORT
A
group of coastal mountain bikers who cycled on fatbikes from
Swakopmund to Spitzkoppe raised more than NS$30 000 in donations
for communities in the #Gaingu Conservancy. Orano Mining Namibia
and Bannerman Mining Resources Namibia jointly donated food parcels,
clothing items, nappies and sanitary products for the most vulnerable
households within these communities. The food parcels complemented
existing emergency food aid initiatives in the area as a result of the drought
challenges faced by the region.
Part of an informal fundraising initiative called “Fat Rock”, are (from left):

he Etango Uranium Project is attracting international attention,
punctuated by a recent visit from the Australian High Commission
in Pretoria.
The delegation was most impressed with the level of care and rehabilitation
put into place during construction of the access roads and the water tank.
The demonstration plant gave a good insight into the heap leach planned
operations for Etango. Tinus Prinsloo, Exploration Superintendent, gave
an interesting presentation that saw the heap leach process simulate the
process of making coffee – from the beans to an espresso!
