Platinum mining giant Mimosa Mining recently commissioned me to help update their marketing images database. The brief was to get engaging images of their staff and operations to be used on all their marketing platforms. This required me to be on site for 3 days of hectic shooting that spanned the mining operations both above and below ground, their CSR projects in the surrounding communities as well as staff and aerial images.
Mimosa are platinum miners and so the bulk of their operations are underground, so I spent a fair amount of time way below the earth surface capturing all the activity. I think the results below do both the staff and the operations justice?
Being a large mine there is also a lot of activity and infrastructure above ground and the following day was spent capturing this variety above ground. Check out the results below.
Mimosa prides itself on being a modern, responsible mining operation and hence has a established and far reaching CSR projects that extend from their immediate community to all corners of Zimbabwe. I spent a day in the Mimosa community and quite a few days travelling the country capturing their amazing work in schools, hospitals, clinics and vocational training centres. Check out some of the inspiring images below.
