The Congolese State provides 435 million dollars for the effective relaunch of mining activities at MIBA. The investment of these millions of dollars is spread over 5 years, including 161 million for the first two years of the five-year term and the difference in the next three years. While waiting for the first installment of the investment budget, MIBA intends to timidly start mining the kimberlite from the Massif 1 site in the first two years of the five-year term. This kimberlite will be fed to the three processing plants to be operationalized sequentially, and having a CUP of 0.49. Based on the CUP of the factories and the fleet of available machines, we have sized the machine park for the partial relaunch of mining activities. This machine park will consist of 2 probes, 3 excavators, 2 loaders, 6 trucks, 1 dozer, 1 grader, 1 compactor, 200-meter-long piping in place of a tanker truck, a machine refueling pump on site, movable on board a vehicle and safety equipment.

Abstract: (french)
L’Etat Congolais prévoit 435 millions de dollars pour la relance effective des activités minières à la MIBA. L’investissement de ces millions de dollars est étalé sur 5 ans dont 161 millions pour les deux premières années du quinquennat et la différence dans les trois prochaines années. En attendant le premier acompte du budget d’investissement, la MIBA compte démarrer timidement l’exploitation de la kimberlite du chantier Massif 1 dans les deux premières années du quinquennat. Cette kimberlite sera alimentée aux trois usines de traitement à opérationnaliser de façon séquentielle, et ayant un CUP de 0,49. Sur base du CUP des usines et la flotte d’engins disponibles, nous avons dimensionné le parc engin pour la relance partielle des activités minières. Ce parc engin sera composé de 2 sondeuses, 3 pelles, 2 chargeuses, 6 camions, 1 dozer, 1 niveleuse, 1 compacteur, une tuyauterie de 200 mètres de longueur à la place d’un camion-citerne, une pompe de ravitaillement des engins sur chantier, déplaçable à bord d’un véhicule et des équipements de sécurité.
