Minetec wins BHP Olympic Dam contract

Minetec has been awarded a contract to supply a fleet management system for BHP’s Olympic Dam mine, including proximity detection, tracking and task management.

The contract, with a total estimated value of $9.5 million, was awarded following a competitive tendering process.

Approximately half of the system will be delivered in FY18 with the balance in FY19.

BHP’s Olympic Dam site is a multimineral ore body containing uranium oxide, copper, gold and silver.

Minetec, a wholly owned subsidiary of Codan Limited following acquisition in 2012, specialises in high-precision tracking, productivity and safety solutions for underground hard-rock mines.
