JOHANNESBURG Aug 28 (Reuters) – Platinum miner Lonmin
said on Tuesday only 8 percent of workers had
reported for duty at its South African operations as it
struggles to restart shafts halted for over 2 weeks due to
labour strife that killed 44 people this month.
The company said in a statement there were “unsubstantiated
reports” of intimidation at its Karee mine on Tuesday morning
but no fresh incidents of violence had been reported.
