MLG Oz secures $75M haulage contract

Western Australian mining company, MLG Oz, has announced a $75 million bulk haulage contract with Westgold Resources.

The three-year agreement commencing next month will see MLG provide bulk ore haulage services for Westgold, transferring Run of Mine (ROM) ore from its various mines to its Higginsville and Lakewood processing facilities.

Additionally, MLG will oversee the management of ore stockpiles on ROM pads and perform haul road maintenance across Westgold’s Southern Goldfields operations.

The contract strengthens MLG’s presence in the Goldfields region and further cements its reputation as a leading provider of integrated mining services by building on its existing relationship with Westgold in the Murchison region over the past three years.

“We are very pleased to further our relationship with Westgold, the combination of this work into our portfolio builds on the businesses’ shared philosophy of unlocking value through a strategic focus on efficiency, safety and scale,” said MLG Oz Managing Director, Murray Leahy.

“Our continued relationship is an endorsement of our team’s capabilities, and we look forward to continuing to support Westgold.”

The announcement follows a period of strong contract growth for MLG, with recent agreements secured with Northern Star Resources, Evolution Mining and Norton Gold Fields.

With an extensive operational network across the Goldfields, MLG continues to scale its services in bulk haulage, crushing and screening, civil works and site services, supporting major mining operations across WA and the Northern Territory.
