Equipment Maintenance
A gold developer in Western Australia is pushing ahead with a technically robust, multi-hub production strategy, leveraging its in-house underground mining capability, modular infrastructure design, and aggressive drilling to transform a fragmented portfolio into a scalable mid-tier platform.
Australia’s offshore oil sector is stirring to life with a new wave of development momentum and exploration ambition, centred on two high-grade liquids discoveries that could materially shift the national fuel balance — and open the door for substantial equipment and service demand across the METS value chain.
In a corner of Western Australia traditionally known for iron ore, a quiet transformation is underway in gas.
In a decisive move that rewrote its approach to underground ground support, Tomingley Gold Operations has phased out twin-strand cable bolts in favour of Falcon Bolts—an innovative self-drilling, mechanically anchored system developed by Jennmar Australia.
A recent ammonia leak at a Western Australian manufacturing site has brought renewed attention to emergency release systems and operator response protocols after a shear coupling failed during a routine loading operation—triggering a toxic release that could have resulted in serious harm.
As underground mining continues to push the limits of depth, temperature, and stress environments, traditional geotechnical design tools are being pushed just as hard.
In the high-stakes world of underground mining, where rotating drill steels and mobile equipment operate in confined, often unpredictable environments, safety remains paramount.
ASX-listed mining services group Perenti Limited (ASX: PRN) has posted record half-year revenue with a 6 percent increase from 1H24, but flagged challenges in its Mining Services and idoba division, payment delays, and project underperformance in Botswana.
