Project Innovation

Thyssen Mining has a rich history in mining throughout the world.  The Thyssen Group of Companies has pioneered many firsts in the mining industry and continues to do so today.

UNIQUE CAPABILITIES

Every project is unique. The solutions should be too. Thyssen Mining’s Technical Services, Safety, and Operations groups work together to create unique solutions tailored to the requirements of each project. Thyssen Mining can assist your project at any stage–from Scoping to Feasibility to Execution through to Existing Infrastructure audits – Thyssen Mining can add value to any phase of a project with a mix of technical and practical experience that few others possess.

For more than a century, Thyssen Mining has had to continually innovate to remain at the forefront of contract mining. As an example:

  • Our proprietary temporary headframe system minimizes mobilization, setup and demobilization times
  • Our unique Pilot and Slash system replaces raise climber style pieces of equipment and increases both safety and productivity
  • Thyssen Mining operates and engineers our own ground freezing system – allowing us to safely excavate through difficult ground conditions while maintaining a predictable schedule and cost
UNDERSTANDING PROJECT NEEDS

All projects have unique challenges. The challenge of building unique projects motivates us. Projects are only successful when planned properly. Every day, on all of our projects, Thyssen Mining safely and efficiently executes innovative projects through the simple principle of “Plan The Work – Work The Plan.”

Thyssen Mining works with our clients to find the options that make the most sense.
