MLG Oz has signed a 30-month crushing and screening contract worth up to $15 million with New Murchison Gold, covering its Crown Prince project.
Crown Prince is a high-grade gold deposit within New Murchison’s Garden Gully project located 22km northwest of Meekatharra in the Murchison goldfield.
The contract, which includes an optional extension up to six months on a rolling monthly basis, is expected to commence in August.
MLG will provide and operate a mobile crushing plant fitted with an automated sampling system. The contract is forecast to generate approximately $500,000 per month in revenue for MLG.
“We are delighted to have been selected by New Murchison Gold to provide crushing and screening services over the next two to three years as they develop their high-grade gold deposit within their flagship Garden Gully project,” MLG Oz managing director Murray Leahy said.
“We continue to actively expand our crushing and screening capabilities, broadening our reach and market presence across our suite of clients in the gold and iron ore mining sectors.”
The contract marks MLG’s first partnership with New Murchison and comes on the back of a series of high-profile contract wins.
Earlier this month, MLG secured a two-year crushing and screening agreement with Fortescue to service four of its iron ore mines. This includes Christmas Creek, Cloudbreak, Solomon, and Eliwana in the Pilbara region.
MLG’s longstanding relationship with Fortescue dates back to 2014 and includes crushing plant commissioning, stemming aggregate production, and screening services.
The company also holds contracts with Rio Tinto, Westgold Resources, Northern Star Resources, Evolution Mining and Vault Minerals.
