Project Scope

A mine in South Australia experienced a catastrophic shaft failure where a loaded skip fell down the shaft, reducing their production by 80%.

MCA Engineering put forward a proposal and within days were fully mobilised ready to work. Working 24/7 for 8 months MCA removed and replaced 480 tonnes of steel including 260T of Guide Ropes.

It was a huge achievement by MCA and all other personal involved to get the shaft back into production.
