            <description><![CDATA[Biennial tradeshow Electra Mining Africa 2026 will introduce a host of new features, including a brand new Orange Zone area that will be situated in the Arena at the Expo Centre, more theme days, and a new mascot. Electra Mining organisers Montgomery Group Africa portfolio director Charlene Hefer explains that, because there was insufficient outside space for exhibitors in 2024, opening up this space for a new zone will accommodate those additional exhibitors who want to exhibit outside. “This adds to the existing Red, Blue, Green and Yellow Zones outside.”]]></description>

The honey badger was chosen because “no creature better embodies the qualities that define mining and industry: toughness, resilience, adaptability and innovation in the face of challenge – the honey badger never backs down, and neither does the mining and industrial sector”.</image_title>

            <description><![CDATA[Environmental, social and governance (ESG) mandates, sustainability worries, and the “very real impacts of climate change and water scarcity in South Africa”, have resulted in a noticeable increase in demand for on-line metal analysers for liquids, says Royce Water Systems (RWS) director Jacques Franken. Given the realities around climate change and ongoing challenges relating to the provision, stewardship and use of water in South Africa, this increased interest is likely to persist, which is why it is particularly apt that RWS – a division of Action Instruments – will be showcasing SEIBOLD heavy metal analysers, as well as the WESS Global sludge level and density meters at Electra Mining Africa 2026.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[In the demanding world of mining operations, where every minute of downtime translates to substantial financial losses, the reliability of power generation equipment extends far beyond the initial purchase. The true value of a generator investment lies in maintaining optimal performance throughout its operational life, safeguarding warranties and ensuring equipment runs at peak efficiency. This is where original equipment manufacturer (OEM) after-sales service and maintenance contracts prove their worth, says commercial generator and lighting supplier HIMOINSA Southern &#38; East Africa. Since becoming part of the Yanmar Group in 2015, HIMOINSA Southern &#38; East Africa has established itself as the fastest-growing subsidiary in HIMOINSA's global network. Its partnership with Yanmar Energy System, the international power division of Yanmar, brings unprecedented technical expertise and support to Southern and East African mining operations.]]></description>

            <link>https://www.miningweekly.com/article/unlocking-career-opportunities-for-south-african-engineers-2024-07-31</link>
