Sundt shared its civil construction expertise – particularly related to the mining industry – with thousands of industry leaders and other attendees at the recent MINExpo® conference in Las Vegas, Nev. MINExpo is widely recognized as the premier exposition of mining equipment and services in the world, featuring a wide range of new-product introductions and exhibits of some of the largest mining equipment. It is attended by many of the leading executives and professionals in the world mining industry.
Sundt has constructed hundreds of mining projects across the Southwest in the past five decades. Our work has spanned the entire spectrum of mine types at all stages (greenfield, rebuild, reclaimed), and our experience includes constructing and installing rail spurs, roadwork, integrated water treatment facilities, material storage and handling systems, process equipment, crushing and grinding systems and maintenance facilities. We also provide project feasibility estimating and scheduling.
Even in the specialized world of industrial construction, mining projects are unique. They are governed by stringent federal regulations as well as high, client-driven standards for safety and quality. Successful mining projects depend on detailed planning, thorough knowledge of specialty systems, piping and equipment construction and mastery of quality requirements. Mining work is high-risk and often performed in remote locations, which creates challenges with procuring skilled labor and specialty materials.
We had a great time at this year’s MINExpo and we hope to be back in 2016!
