Load & Haul

Moving ore and waste efficiently and safely — from the bench face to the crusher, stockpile or waste dump.

Overview

We provide the fleet, operators and site management that open-pit operations need to hit their production targets — planned around your mine schedule, haul routes and bench sequence.

Our load & haul teams work to your mine plan, matching excavator and truck combinations to haul distances, ramp gradients and bench heights. We manage cycle times, fleet availability and road conditions daily, and report production transparently so you always know where the tonnes are.

Safety on the mine

All mining work is carried out in compliance with the Mine Health and Safety Act 29 of 1996 (MHSA). Operators are licensed and medically fit for duty, fleet is fitted with fire suppression as the mine requires, and our appointed safety resources conduct risk assessments, inspections and daily toolbox talks.
