Innovation in challenging mining applications such as shaft sinking and mine development stems not only from experience and institutional knowledge but is also driven by close client partnerships built on trust and confidence.
Graham Chamberlain, New Business Director at Cementation Africa (previously known as Murray & Roberts Cementation), emphasises that the company’s brand and reputation have always been built on successfully delivering quality projects under demanding conditions.
Formed through the merger of Murray & Roberts RUC and The Cementation Company (Africa), the company marks its 21st year with a new chapter as it becomes Cementation Africa from 1 July 2025, following its acquisition by a consortium of investors led by Differential Capital. While the name changes, Chamberlain affirms that the team remains fully committed to providing the same high performance underground mining solutions as it embraces this exciting new phase.
Innovative solutions
“Our many years in the mining industry, where we work on complex and lengthy projects, have taught us that collaboration is always the most effective way to overcome the challenges that every project presents,” says Chamberlain. “It is often through these close working relationships that innovative solutions emerge, keeping us at the forefront of safety and productivity in underground mining.”
