PYBAR
Underground metals mining specialist PYBAR, a Thiess company, has secured a three-year contract to provide underground mining rehabilitation and development services at MMG Limited’s Rosebery Mine in Tasmania.
The agreement further strengthens PYBAR’s relationship with MMG and solidifies PYBAR’s presence at the Rosebery polymetallic base metal mine, where it has been delivering a three-year shotcrete and cemented rockfill (CRF) contract since April 2023.
PYBAR General Manager James Glover said: “We look forward to furthering our work with MMG at the Rosebery mine, which directly contributes to Australia’s standing as a major global supplier of critical minerals.
“Our team is mobilising to site to commence work on this additional new scope, committed to quality outcomes.”
Thiess Group Executive Chair and CEO Michael Wright said: “We’re really excited by this contract award – it demonstrates the expanding services that Thiess companies continue to offer our clients, and our expanding focus on critical minerals.
“This contract win also strengthens PYBAR’s partnership with MMG on a project with a great history of success and acknowledges the underground mining expertise that PYBAR brings.”
Located approximately 300km north-west of Hobart, the Rosebery mine has been operating continuously for almost 90 years, producing zinc, copper and lead concentrates containing gold and silver payability as well as gold doré.
The high-grade ore extracted from Rosebery is essential for manufacturing, technology, energy, and construction industries worldwide.
