MLG locked in as key partner for Mungari expansion

MLG Oz has secured a five-year mining services contract with Evolution Mining, strengthening the relationship between the two companies.

MLG has been providing its integrated mining services at Evolution’s Mungari gold operations in Western Australia since 2021.

Under the new five-year contract taking effect from July 1 2025, MLG will continue supporting Evolution in realising the growth and investment at Mungari.

MLG’s works at Mungari will include the loading and hauling ore from Evolution’s various run of mine (ROM) sites to the Mungari ROM, managing the Mungari ROM and feeding ore into the processing plant, maintenance of ore haul roads and ROM pads, and the delivery of paste fill material management.

“Evolution has become an important client for the company since 2021, as it continues to expand its mining services and resource asset management capabilities,” MLG managing director Murray Leahy said.

“We are very pleased to have further extended our relationship with Evolution and the Mungari team with the signing of a material, long-term contract. Evolution plans to significantly increase the scope of their operations at Mungari over the coming years.” 

The contract is expected to help MLG grow its work scope and revenue with Evolution from approximately $25 million per annum to $32 million per annum, beginning from the 2025–26 financial year and beyond.

“Evolution is delighted to be working with MLG as a key local partner as we capitalise on our regional resource base to assist with the Mungari 4.2 expansion,” Evolution general manager Mungari operations Scott Barber said.

“The project is tracking ahead of schedule and on budget. MLG’s contract services are an integral part in delivering the benefits of Mungari’s expansion, which is instrumental to unlocking the asset’s long-term future.”
