NRW Holdings’ (ASX:NWH) subsidiary NRW Civil and Mining has secured a $167 million contract by Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO) for work at the Brockman Syncline 1 mine development in Western Australia.
Under the contract, NRW, which has a market capitalisation of $1.35 billion, is responsible for constructing earthworks, roadworks and drainage associated with the primary crusher, overland conveyor and non-process infrastructure, together with constructing haul roads, access roads and concrete structures.
The scope includes drill and blast along with supply and construction of the mechanically stabilised earth run-of-mine wall, two precast concrete overpass tunnels and in-situ concrete foundations for the primary crusher.
NRW says work will begin immediately with a peak workforce of more than 300 people.
The Brockman Syncline 1 mine is located within the Brockman Mine Hub in the Pilbara region. The project is in close proximity to other NRW construction sites, including the Brockman 4 to Brockman 2 haul road contract and the recently completed Western Turner Northern Access Road.
NRW is a diversified contract services provider to the resources and infrastructure sectors in Australia.
