Perenti (ASX:PRN) subsidiary Barminco has won an $850 million contract at Bellevue Gold’s (ASX:BGL) Bellevue Gold Mine, 40km northwest of Leinster.
Beginning August 2026, Barmico will spend four years providing underground mining services at the Western Australian Goldfields operation. There is also potential for a further 12-month extension.
Existing contractor Develop Group’s (ASX:DVP) workers, equipment, systems, and operational readiness activities have begun transition planning in collaboration with Bellevue.
Mobilisation will commence immediately using current employees and fleets, with the goal of ensuring safety, operational continuity, and production stability. Bellevue has also included performance incentives for Barminco and Develop to achieve an efficient handover.
“This was a highly competitive process, as shown by the strength of the tenders and the final result,” Bellevue Managing Director Darren Stralow says.
“Barminco presented an extremely attractive proposal across safety, operational capability, and technical expertise, positioning Bellevue strongly for the next phase of operational delivery and growth.”
He also notes Develop’s “significant contribution” to Bellevue over the past four years.
“Their depth of underground mining experience and global scale will further support Bellevue as the operation continues to mature and optimise.”
Perenti Group is a mining services group that provides contract mining, drilling, and technology solutions.
Bellevue Gold is a gold explorer, evaluator, and processor with assets in Western Australia.
