How we keep
people safe.
Safety is not a department at BSME. It is the first objective of the business and the measure of every shift.
Safety first, always
We are a company that thrives on placing safety as our first objective, ahead of schedule and ahead of cost.
Mine-specific targets
We adopt the safety targets and KPIs of each mine we work on, and set out to better them.
Accountable teams
Commitment, accountability, compliance and a target-driven culture guide how our teams plan and work.
Ready for change
We stay flexible with new legislation and changes to the Mining Charter, so compliance keeps pace with the industry.
Blasting with a lighter footprint.
For secondary blasting in sensitive areas, our non-detonator explosives reduce the impact of breaking boulders and toes.
- Minimal fly rock
- Reduced noise level
- Minimal evacuation distance
- Low fumes
- Minimal vibrations and shock waves
Our work supports our clients' duty to protect the health and safety of everyone affected by mining.
Explosives are handled, stored and used with the control and accountability South African law requires.
BSME is registered for workers' compensation under the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act.
Every shift.
Every site.
The same standard applies whether we are drilling at surface, breaking boulders on the pit floor or installing support underground.
