Mining Solutions - Construction

Once a mining project has been given the green light from a financial and operational perspective, the construction process begins. At DHL, we have been at the forefront of construction phase involvement on most global continents, and have vast experience in ensuring that logistical requirements are met for your mine field, power generation facility, tailings dam, miner’s camp, offices or even your warehouse.

Our strong customs experience also means that any financial or legal aspects relating to the temporary importation of equipment and machinery can be dealt with simply and with minimum hassle to your business.

We can provide a detailed timeline logistics plan that is ready to be put in place as soon as the funding is available.

Right from the word “Go”, all aspects of the construction phase are coordinated and driven by the single aim of completing construction fully either on time or ahead of schedule and within your budget.

Equipment Logistics

No matter how big or complex the equipment you need for construction or for mine operations; with DHL by your side you have a company who has moved cargo of every size to every corner of the world.

Construction Materials

In very few remote projects a ready source of construction materials needs to be brought in safely and securely by a reliable and cost effective means. With our experience in the mining industry, we understand the finer details. Once again, DHL has you covered.

Infrastructure

When you’re building a large mine you are effectively constructing a small to medium sized town, which will house thousands of people for several years if not decades. The infrastructure aspect of the mine is extremely important and here’s how DHL can help you get this right:

If you’re moving cargo, you need somewhere to move it to and a means of getting it there. Whatever infrastructure is necessary as part of your mine construction phase you can rely on DHL being able to price it and organize it cleanly, effectively and on schedule.

If you need a temporary construction camp whilst the new mine is constructed or an expansion of your exploration camp, you can count on DHL to understand the logistical requirements.

DHL has the experience in setting up reliable fossil fuelled or hydroelectric power sources, clean water and communications in the remotest of areas.

With access to DHL, you have one of the world’s best warehouse design organizations. Whether it is the building itself, goods flow, processes, IT set up, working spaces, cages or even RFID installations, we ensure that it’s all at your fingertips.

With our DHL Industrial Projects team, you have a group of people who have years of experience in ensuring that when we set up a Laydown, it is right for the customers needs. We design them to meet the requirements of the project in terms of access, security and durability.
