Project case study
Marvel Loch underground road base and stemming.
30,000 tonnes of underground road base and stemming aggregate co-produced in a single Marvel Loch crushing campaign. Three engineered products from one circuit.
Project overview
Underground road base and stemming aggregate co-produced from a single circuit. Three engineered outputs, one mobilisation. Standard requirement for an underground gold operation: road base for the decline, stemming for blast holes, fines as a co-product. The crew configured the train to hit all three specs from one feed source.
Scope of works
- Mobilisation of crushing train to a Marvel Loch underground operation
- Train configured for three concurrent product outputs from a single feed source
- Underground road base production at +20mm to -50mm spec
- Stemming aggregate production at +10mm to -20mm spec
- -10mm fines stockpiled as a co-product for ancillary use
Outcomes
- 30,000 tonnes produced across three engineered products
- Single mobilisation efficiency for underground operation supply
- Foundation for similar three-product campaign approaches across other WA gold sites
