At this mine located near Balfour in South Africa the main traffic areas within the mine had become overcome by fugitive and windborne dust making dust suppression a requirement. Soil & Dust Solutions was called in and Durasolution was applied over a total area of 2,500 square meters which included the areas leading up to and surrounding the vehicle workshop, the diesel bay, the brake test ramp, the entrance to the decline and underground within the decline shaft.

The application was done by hand and without interruption to any traffic.
