Leading national mining and civil contractor NRW Holdings (ASX: NWH) has been awarded a contract by Evolution Mining (ASX: EVN) for surface mining at the Castle Hill deposit, part of the Mungari gold mining operations.
Castle Hill is located in the heart of the Goldfields, 50km north-west of Kalgoorlie and 40km north of Coolgardie, ideally situated to allow NRW to engage with local businesses and further develop the local community partnerships established by the Mungari operations.
The works to be performed include load and haul, drill and blast and construction of site supporting facilities. The drill and blast component will be undertaken by NRW’s subsidiary Action Drill & Blast.
The anticipated value of the contract is about $360 million, with work commencing next month and expected to be completed by mid-2030. The project will average 150 personnel.
Commenting on the contract award, NRW chief executive Jules Pemberton said:
“I am delighted to announce that NRW has been awarded this contract with Evolution Mining. NRW has a long history as a high-quality provider of mining services to our clients and I look forward to a successful partnership with Evolution.”
