MLG has been awarded a fully integrated open pit mining and crushing services contract with Develop Global Limited.
Under the contract, MLG will provide a comprehensive suite of services supporting operations at the Cade Pit, the inaugural mining stage of Develop’s Pioneer Dome Lithium Project in Western Australia.
This will include drill and blast, ore and waste mining, load and haul, ROM stockpile management, ore rehandle and the supply, operation and maintenance of the crushing circuit.
The contract is expected to generate approximately $70 million in revenue across its 12-month term and represent a material revenue contribution to MLG’s mining services and crushing portfolio through financial year 2027.
Operations will be supported by MLG-owned crushing assets and core production fleet, providing meaningful operational control and asset utilisation across the campaign.
MLG Chief Executive Officer, Mark Hatfield, said the award of the contract is a strategically important step for MLG.
“It positions us alongside one of the most credible emerging producers on the ASX and marks a meaningful entry into the lithium services market,” he said.
“This integrated scope of work, spanning drill and blast, load and haul, crushing and site services under a single accountable framework, showcases the depth of MLG’s self-perform capability and reinforces the value of its integrated service model for clients seeking a trusted, end-to-end services partner.
“We look forward to working closely with Develop to deliver this initial stage of activity safely and efficiently, and to building a strong relationship as Develop progresses its broader plans for Pioneer Dome.”
MLG anticipates the crushing scope may extend as Develop progresses subsequent phases of work at Pioneer Dome.
Any extension will be subject to future commercial arrangements between MLG and Develop.
