CSI Mining Services (CSI) is set to expand its operations into Queensland, following a contract award to deliver haulage services for a Tier One mining company.
The new load and haul operations contract will see CSI running eight Kenworth C509 quad road trains – the biggest single engine road trains in the world featuring a 330-tonne payload and 425-tonne gross combination mass.
MinRes Mining Services Chief Executive Mike Grey said expanding into Queensland was an exciting milestone for the company as it continues a significant period of growth that will see it double in the next two years.
“We are excited to expand our operations into the east coast of Australia, opening up new business opportunities and access to new labour markets,” Mike said.
CSI will employ more than 50 site-based personnel to support the contract, prioritising local employment and presenting opportunities to work at MinRes sites across the country.
Businesses in far north Queensland will also benefit, with CSI set to partner with local companies to support the operation where feasible.
CSI is proud to be the partner of choice for some of the world’s largest mining companies. For more information, visit our CSI Mining Services page.
