Our foundation dates back to 2009, originating from a strong mining contractor background under Opsicol, where multiple operations were successfully developed across the country, including early activity in Middelburg, Delmas , Bronkospruit

This background gives us a distinct advantage:

  • Strong execution capability
  • Tight operational control
  • Cost discipline

We have carried this DNA into Colton, combining contractor efficiency with mining house stability.
