New Century Resources Ltd. awarded a five-year, A$110 million contract to CIMIC Group's Sedgman Pty. Ltd. to operate and maintain its Lawn Hill processing plant, concentrate pipeline and Karumba Port facility, as the company looks to restart its Century mine in Queensland, Australia.
In 2017, Sedgman provided a feasibility study on the restart of the Century zinc mine. Sedgman subsequently commenced engineering, procurement, construction works for the refurbishment and reconfiguration of the plant and port, and provided services for operational readiness requirements.
Early works at the site started in December 2017 and the project is on track to restart production in the third quarter, CIMIC said May 28.
