Boddington Gold Mine Award

Agility Project Logistics (the new name for Transoceanic) in Perth has successfully been awarded by AKCMR the turn-key freight management contract for the BGM Expansion Project. The original oxide gold mine at BGM ceased operations on 1 December 2001 and the mine moved into a period of closure and decommissioning and shortly after into care and maintenance.

The Project will involve the handling of all types of movements from break-bulk, container and heavy lift shipments from various locations throughout the world to Boddington Western Australia - the main Project site.

The Boddington Gold Mine (BGM) is located 130 kilometres (80 miles) southeast of Perth in Western Australia.

The Expansion Project includes open cut mining from two large open pits. It requires the construction of a new processing plant which will include a three-stage crushing circuit, single stage grinding, copper-gold flotation and gold leaching of the flotation residue by the carbon-in-leach (CIL) process.

A 1250-1500 person accommodation village will accommodate the bulk of the construction workers during the construction period with occupancy to be phased down after construction. Construction began in May 2006.

The Project Principle is Newmont and the Aker Kvaerner has contracted Transoceanic to handle all project logistical aspects.
