Project description
The project involved the construction of a service corridor with the installation and commissioning of 13 primary lines, each 1km in length. Services included Tails, Seepage, Potable Water, Sewer, Saline, and Decant lines. The site was adjacent to a live mine processing facility and mining workshops.
The works included large-scale earthworks cut and fill, installation of culverts, pouring in situ concrete road crossings, staging of cutovers and removal of pre-existing services corridor. Doolee undertook the civil aspects of the project working closely with NSR and other mine stakeholders to ensure smooth completion and minimum disruption to operations and processing within the mine. The project started in March 2024 with completion in August 2024.
