[miningmx.com] – SOUTH African union Solidarity had discovered crack at a second coal silo at Eskom’s Majuba power said BDLive citing the union. The claims were denied by the power utility.
Head of the energy industry at Solidarity Deon Reyneke said he had alerted Eskom to the possibility that the silo could collapse. On November 2, a silo collapsed at Majuba which caused a day of national load-shedding.
