Mining

The extraction of mineral resources has been continuously increasing over the centuries to meet the growing human demand of natural resources. Today, the mining industry is facing the unprecedent challenge to enhance operators’ safety while minimizing its impact on local communities and its overall environmental footprint.


Maccaferri engineering skills and experience help clients to overcome highly technical problems in each stage of their mine’s lifecycle. Improving haul truck efficiency by enhancing haul-road quality, implementing the mine drainage plans, preventing and controlling geohazards to improve the safety of operatives and designing cost-effective reinforced soil crushers are few of the many solutions we refine our expertise on.

Every application has the same high standard: we supply efficient, safe and environmentally friendly solutions to maximise the opportunity to reuse site-won materials and drive down the carbon footprint of the project.
