A D P Marine & Modular (Pty) Ltd Unclaimed

ADP Marine and Modular were commissioned by Namdeb to determine and implement a complete economically viable and sustainable solution to mine the Sendelingsdrif alluvial deposit located in Namdeb’s Orange River Mines Mining License Area (ML42) on the Namibian side of the Orange River. The Sendelingsdrif area has a tourism-based land end use and as such the full design of the project was done with that end state in mind. A full Environmental Impact Assessment was conducted and included various specialist studies as identified by the team and Interested & Affected Parties (I&AP) during the stakeholder engagements. The Sendelingsdrif project team (a partnership between ADP and the Namdeb Owners team) executed the detail design and construction of the Sendelingsdrif Treatment Plant (STP) and the associated infrastructure. Seamless transition between the current Daberas operation and the Sendelingsdrif operation was seen as one of the biggest challenges of the project as the same mining equipment had to be utilised as was currently in operation at Daberas. All on-mine infrastructure had to be provided to cater for all necessary support services, including water, power, earthmoving and treatment maintenance facilities, administration buildings etc.
