JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Violence has spread to the eastern operations of world No. 3 platinum producer Lonmin, the trade union Solidarity said on Monday, raising concerns of unrest flaring again after 44 people were killed this month in labour strife.
"Levels of intimidation are very high. Only 17 percent of employees arrived for work compared to Saturday's 57 percent," Gideon du Plessis, Solidarity's deputy general secretary, told Reuters. Solidarity represents skilled workers at the mine.
