Australian miner MLG Oz has been awarded a new contract, valued at up to A$15m ($9.8m), to provide crushing and screening services at New Murchison Gold’s Crown Prince gold deposit in Western Australia (WA).
The agreement, set to commence next month, marks MLG Oz’s first collaboration with New Murchison and will last for an initial period of 30 months, with potential extensions for up to six months.
MLG will provide a mobile crushing plant featuring an automated sampling system and will be responsible for operating and servicing the equipment throughout the duration of the contract.
MLG Oz managing director Murray Leahy said: “We are delighted to have been selected by New Murchison Gold to provide crushing and screening services over the next two to three years as they develop their high-grade gold deposit within their flagship Garden Gully Project.
“We continue to actively expand our crushing and screening capabilities, broadening our reach and market presence across our suite of clients in the gold and iron ore mining sectors.”
The Crown Prince high-grade gold project is part of New Murchison’s Garden Gully Project, which is situated 22km north-west of Meekatharra in WA.
This deal is expected to generate approximately A$500,000 per month in revenue for MLG Oz. It follows a series of new contract wins and extensions for the company, including its first contract with mining giant Rio Tinto and another providing services to Fortescue.
In February, MLG Oz announced a A$75m contract with Westgold Resources for bulk haulage services and the supply of goods and/or services across its southern operations in the WA Goldfields.
