About Implats
Implats is in the business of mining, refining and marketing of PGMs, as well as nickel, copper and cobalt. In the 2009 financial year, Implats produced 1.7Moz of platinum (approximately 25% of global supply) and 3.4Moz of PGMs. The group employs approximately 53 000 people across its operations and is one of the most efficient and lowest cost primary platinum producers in the world.
Implats’ mining interests are found on the two most significant known PGM-bearing orebodies in the world, the Bushveld Complex in South Africa and Zimbabwe’s Great Dyke. Impala Platinum, Implats’ primary operational unit, has 14 shaft systems on the western limb of the Bushveld Complex, predominantly in the Bojanala District of the North West Province. Its socio-economic development activities in South Africa are managed under the auspices of the Impala Group Sustainable Development Forum.
