Sibanye to cut nearly 300 jobs at US ops after palladium price fall
Diversified miner Sibanye Stillwater said on Wednesday it would cut 287 jobs at its U.S platinum group metals (PGM) operations to reduce costs as metal prices decline, adding the move would not significantly affect production. The palladium price has plunged nearly 40% so far this year, particularly hit by weak demand in China, while primary metal platinum is down 14%. The Johannesburg-based miner last year announced the restructuring of its palladium-dominated U.S operations in anticipation of a fall in palladium prices and because of the impact of inflation on costs.
