In FY 2013, Petra commenced a disposal process with regards to its Fissure Mines portfolio as they are no longer core to the Group’s portfolio. As of 30 April 2014 Petra and its BEE partners disposed of their interests in both the Sedibeng and Star mines. Star is underground fissure mine which exploits narrow diamondiferous kimberlite fissures using labour intensive mining methods.
