Thiess announced the extension of its mining services contract with BHP Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) for the Caval Ridge operations in Queensland.
In a statement, Thiess said the new deal, which begins on 1 December 2022, has a possible length of up to five years and a revenue value of up to $600 million to Thiess.
Thiess will continue to offer mining services at the Caval Ridge mine, operating and maintaining mining equipment to shift overburden to fulfil BMA’s production requirements.
Thiess Executive Chair and CEO Michael Wright said since December 2017, Thiess has been delivering mining solutions to BMA at Caval Ridge.
“Importantly, our team continues to have a clear commitment and focus on fostering diversity and respectful workplaces, with almost 30% of the workforce being female and 10% being Indigenous. We continue to seek opportunities to bring under-represented groups into the mining industry, and delivering sustainable mining solutions for our clients and stakeholders,” Wright stated.
Thiess Executive General Manager Australia East Cluny Randell said: “We’re very proud to build on our safe and strong performance at Caval Ridge, and extend our deep working relationship with BMA. We will continue to drive long-term economic value by creating local jobs and regional supply opportunities, and supporting the communities where we operate.”
Thiess is now hiring in the Bowen Basin for a variety of positions, including truck, multi-skilled, and excavator operators.
