ASX-listed Dynamic Drill and Blast has been selected for the provision of drilling and blasting and privately-owned Lucas Total Contract Solutions for mining, crushing and screening services.
Strike says it is currently working with both parties to finalise the detailed scope of services, schedules and formal contract terms.
Lucas will also be responsible for civil works required at Paulsens East, including construction of an 18km haulage road from the mine site and site works for the mining village.
With Campbells Transport already nailed down as its preferred haulage contractor, Strike has now secured all its key contractors for Paulsens East.
Strike has also entered into a contract with Telstra to commence works on establishing suitable communications infrastructure for the proposed mine site and village.
Due to the remote location of Paulsens East, a dedicated microwave tower on site is needed together with associated voice and data equipment.
