About the Project

Abergeldie has been engaged to deliver one of the most technically challenging underground projects in Australia, the design and construction of two blind-bored ventilation shafts as part of a gold-copper mine expansion in Western Australia. The complex scope includes;

• Two shafts developed concurrently, each approximately 430 metre deep.

• 6.2 metre cut diameter, finished at 5 metre internal diameter.

• Significant surface civil works, permanent composite liners, annular grout and shaft cover.

Projects of this scale and complexity are exceptionally rare in Australia, making this a unique opportunity for tunnelling and underground professionals.
