Serfontein gives extra thought to making contract mining work

Contract mining, leasing and fleet management group Eqstra has enjoyed a recent fillip in its share price - up more than 60% since scratching all-time lows of R2.01 a share earlier this year. Fund managers such as Conduit Capital have been snapping up stock, even though Eqstra's performance since unbundling from Imperial in 2008 leaves much to be desired - down 79% since.
