Overview
Thiess returns to Central Kalimantan on a life-of-mine contract
Our commitment to safety, health and well-being, with an emphasis on fatigue management, will be critical throughout this project.
Thiess will operate the adjacent Kapuas Tunggal Persada (KTP) and Global Bara Mandiri (GBM) mines and will deliver turnkey operations, including mine design and planning, drill and blast, overburden removal, load and haul, asset maintenance and management, haul road maintenance, water management, rehabilitation and port operations.
The team is committed to sustainable mining and will further this commitment with initiatives such as using solar cells to provide electricity support for our offices and workshop, recycling waste oil to be used in the blasting process, and recycling domestic wastewater to be used across the project.
With Thiess' strong focus on diversity and inclusion, the team has established a female operator training program and is offering opportunities for people with disabilities to bring new people into the industry.
Thiess' presence will help contribute to reviving the local economy, especially in Kapuas Regency, through increasing opportunities for local communities and businesses.
