Our Operations
Afrimat’s Contract Mining Services division delivers turnkey mining solutions in South Africa, to meet the growing needs of the country’s dynamic resource sector. As the mining industry faces increasing demand for efficiency, sustainability, and reliable output, Afrimat stands out as a trusted partner providing full “pit-to-port” solutions that cover the entire mining value chain — from resource modelling and mine planning to drilling, blasting, load & haul, crushing, screening and final delivery.
With deep expertise and a modern fleet, Afrimat helps customers meet production goals efficiently, safely, and cost-effectively, while staying fully compliant with South African mining standards.
Afrimat delivers integrated contract mining services tailored to South Africa’s mining, quarrying, and construction industries.
We develop strategic mine plans and designs using advanced geological data, resource models, and planning software. This ensures optimal extraction, safe pit layouts, and cost-effective production.
Our in-house drilling and blasting teams use the latest techniques and monitoring tools to execute precise blasts, ensuring proper fragmentation and minimal environmental impact.
Afrimat operates a modern fleet of trucks and loaders to manage large-scale excavation and material transport. Our teams work efficiently to move overburden and mined materials across all terrains, minimising delays and ensuring steady production flow.
Our mobile and in-pit crushers and screening plants process material to client specifications, ensuring consistent quality and readiness for further beneficiation or sale.
We add value at source through on-site beneficiation, improving grades and reducing waste to maximise resource recovery.

Afrimat’s vertically integrated model sets us apart in South Africa’s mining sector. By managing the full mining workflow in-house — from planning and drilling to crushing and transport — we reduce handovers, minimise delays, and maintain total quality control.
This integrated approach means faster delivery, predictable costs, and a single point of accountability for customers. It also allows Afrimat to maintain full oversight of quality control — with in-house site labs, central laboratories, and real-time material testing ensuring every stage of production meets exacting standards.
Contract mining is when a mining company outsources operations — like drilling, blasting, hauling, and processing — to a specialist contractor. This boosts efficiency, reduces capital costs, and transfers operational risks.
Afrimat supports, anthracite, iron ore, manganese, phosphate, aggregates, limestone, and other industrial minerals.
We embed safety in every process. From detailed risk assessments and EMPs to rigorous staff training and certified labs, we ensure all operations meet South African mining regulations.
