Company Description
Venetia Mine (VM) was an open pit diamond mine located approximately 80 kilometres west of Musina in the Limpopo Province. It is the largest producer of diamonds in South Africa and will attain a depth of 450m at the end of Cut 4 (circa 2022).
The objective of the Venetia Underground Project (VUP), a brownfields project, is the systematic expansion of the life of the existing VOP by developing underground access to two kimberlitic pipes, K01 and K02, which will create continued shareholder value into the future. The VUP will lengthen the economic life of VM from 2022 (when it is scheduled to complete open pit mining operations and underground ore extraction operations will start to ramp up) to 2045. The ore processing and other physical infrastructure currently in place at VM will remain largely unchanged by the transition from open pit to underground mining while additional infrastructure to support the underground mining operations will be constructed by the VUP in the period 2013 to 2022.
The key mandate of the Operational Readiness & Transition Team (OR&T) is the planning and successful execution of the integration and transition of the open pit to an underground operation with no production hiatus or loss of revenue.
The Engineer: OR&T is required to manage and lead the implementation of the AS&R framework and engineering elements of the OR&T Master Schedule supporting the transition from open pit to underground operations.
