Jwaneng Modular Plant Marks 10 Years of Production Excellence. The Jwaneng Modular Plant (JMP), a key component of the world-renowned Jwaneng Mine, is celebrating a decade of successful operations. The facility was introduced to enhance the processing capabilities of the mine, which has been operational since 1982.
The Jwaneng Mine, operated by Debswana, is widely recognized as one of the richest diamond mines globally. While the mine itself has a legacy spanning over four decades, the Modular Plant represents a more recent innovation, aimed at optimizing the recovery of diamonds from lower-grade ore and tailings.
Since its commissioning, the JMP has significantly bolstered Debswana’s overall production efficiency. It employs advanced technology to process ore more effectively, recovering diamonds that might otherwise have been lost. Over the past 10 years, the plant has contributed substantially to Botswana’s diamond output and the national economy.
As the plant celebrates this milestone, it reflects on a decade of innovation and operational success, solidifying its role in the mine’s ongoing contribution to Botswana’s diamond industry. The anniversary also underscores Debswana’s commitment to sustainable mining practices and technological advancements.
