Syama Mine Access Road Upgrade: EBS Surface Seal for Enhanced Durability & Safety 🚜🌍
Located 300 km southeast of Bamako and 30 km from the Côte d’Ivoire border, Syama Mine in Mali, West Africa, sought to evaluate the performance of EBS Soil Stabilizer not only for air traffic but also under heavy road traffic conditions.
Expanding the Use of EBS: Access Road Surface Seal
While on-site upgrading the airstrip, the Syama Mine team identified the main access road from the gate to the camp entrance as an ideal candidate for an EBS Surface Seal application.
Road Preparation & EBS Application
✔ Surface Preparation – The road was graded to remove loose debris and crowned for proper drainage.
✔ EBS Surface Seal Application – Multiple coats of EBS were applied to create a strong, dust-free, and erosion-resistant surface.
Key Benefits of the EBS Surface Seal
✅ Erosion Prevention – Protects the road from weathering, water damage, and material loss.
✅ Prevents Surface Undulations – Eliminates potholes, corrugation, and rutting, ensuring a smooth driving experience.
✅ Enhanced Safety & Performance – Provides improved skid and rolling resistance, reducing accidents and vehicle wear.
✅ Dust-Free Environment – Eliminates dust, creating better visibility and a healthier work environment.
✅ Lower Maintenance Costs – Significantly reduces the need for frequent repairs, grading, and dust suppression.
