MoreSouth African coal for local electricity production is among the cheapest in the world. The beneficiation of coal, particularly for export, results in more than 65Mt of coal discards being produced every year. About 21 percent of the run-of-mine coal produced is exported, and 21 percent is used locally (excluding power-station coal).
MoreToday, not one of these dense-medium plants remains operational. Spirals were introduced into the South African coal industry in the early 1980s and soon became accepted as the fine coal beneficiation process of choice. Currently, almost every coal processing plant in South Africa employs spirals to beneficiate fine coal.
