Kamoa-Kakula reports first fatality

The Kamoa-Kakula copper project, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), has reported its first fatality, after having gone more than seven-and-a-half years without a lost-time injury.

Canada-headquartered Ivanhoe Mines reported on Tuesday that a contractor’s employee had died at the copper project. The accident involved a civil contractor at a surface cement batching plant.
