UP's Department of Mining Engineering is home to industry leaders.

Executive Head: Mining Operations at Valterra Platinum, Willie Theron, has completed his MSc Applied Science (Mining Engineering) degree through the Department.

His master’s study focused on pillar design and the associated mining engineering constraints in hard rock bord-and-pillar mines. It entailed extensive research on the strength of hard rock pillars, with the aim of obtaining improved estimates of pillar strength to ensure stable excavations and optimise extraction ratios.

Congratulations on this exceptional achievement! We look forward to the seeing the work Valterra Platinum does in industry under your leadership.
