Mining services firm NRW Holdings (ASX:NWH) has been awarded a $360 million contract by an Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) subsidiary for surface mining at the Castle Hill gold deposit in Western Australia.
beginning in November 2024 the contract is expected to be completed by mid-2030 and will average about 150 personnel on site.
NRW Holdings, which has a market capitalisation of $1.62 billion, will carry out load and haul operations, as well as site construction that supports facilities.
Drilling and blasting will also be undertaken by NRW’s privately held subsidiary Action Drill & Blast.
CEO Jules Pemberton says NRW has a long history as a provider of mining services to clients and looks forward to a successful partnership with Evolution.
NRW adds that Castle Hill is ideally situated to allow the company to engage with local businesses and further develop local community partnerships established by the Mungari Operations.
Castle Hill lies in the heart of the Goldfields region, 50km northwest of Kalgoorlie and 40km north of Coolgardie.
Evolution Mining is a global gold miner that operates across six mines, five of which are wholly owned in New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, and Canada.
NRW Holdings is a diversified contract services provider to the resources and infrastructure sectors in Australia.
