The Inter-Mines Sports Games is a highlight and a much-anticipated event on the mining fraternity’s calendar, where peers and colleagues build long-lasting friendships and relationships outside of work. It promotes a healthy work-life balance by encouraging competitors to become physically active and lead healthy lifestyles beyond the working environment.
