JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South Africa's Sibanye Gold has obtained a court order to stop an indefinite strike by worker's at its Kroondal platinum mine, a spokesman said on Friday. James Wellsted said the court order means that any further labour stoppage by members of the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union would be illegal. The workers had downed tools earlier on Friday. (Reporting by Zandi Shabalala; Editing by James Macharia)
