Epiroc has confirmed a circa-US$34 million underground mining equipment order from Shandong Gold Group Co in China, with the sale booked into its 2023 fourth-quarter ledger.
The manufacturer said its mine trucks, loaders, drills and rock reinforcement rigs would be used by Shandong to increase production at the Jiaojia, Xincheng and Sanshandao gold mines. Epiroc, formerly Atlas Copco Construction and Mining, has been supplying mining equipment to Shandong since 1986.
“We have a long-standing and productive partnership with Shandong Gold Group, and we are happy to continue supporting the company on its journey toward operations that are as safe and productive as possible,” said Epiroc CEO, Helena Hedblom.
