With demand for explosives improving, mining explosives technology company BME, part of JSE-listed Omnia Group, has been successfully maintaining supply to customers across Africa. BME GM Ralf Hennecke notes that this was despite the disruptions and cross-border challenges the company faced. He adds that the company is already experiencing a significant uptick in demand for their blasting solutions for mines across a range of commodities in African markets, including iron-ore, gold, copper, platinum and manganese.
