Mining Construction

Sundt has constructed hundreds of mining projects across the Southwest. Since 1960, our work has spanned the entire spectrum of mine types at all stages (greenfield, rebuild, reclaimed). Our mining experience includes constructing and installing rail spurs, roadwork, integrated water treatment facilities, material storage and handling systems, process equipment, crushing and grinding systems and maintenance facilities. Sundt can also provide project feasibility estimating and scheduling.

The Sundt Difference

Even in the specialized world of industrial construction, mining projects are unique. They are subject to stringent federal regulations as well as high, client-driven standards for safety and quality. Successful mining projects depend on detailed planning, thorough knowledge of specialty systems, piping and equipment construction and mastery of quality requirements. Mining work is high-risk and often performed in remote locations, which creates challenges with procuring skilled labor and specialty materials.

Sundt has the knowledge and experience required for mining projects, which is why clients choose us. Our safety planning takes priority over production measurements. We approach every project with a disciplined, detailed preplanning process to provide creative solutions to otherwise standard practices. We staff our projects with the right number of people to maximize safety and efficiency, while ensuring that team members' skills and project requirements are well-matched.

Our Self-Perform Capabilities

Our diverse workforce has the ability to self-perform major components of all projects, enabling us to ensure on-time and on-budget performance. Our self-perform capabilities include earthwork, yard piping, demolition, concrete, miscellaneous metals, structural steel erection, boilermaker work, process piping and equipment setting.

Contracting Methods

Sundt remains flexible in our contracting methods to meet the needs of our clients. We regularly perform projects using EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction), Construction Manager at Risk, Design-Build, General Contracting (negotiated) and General Contracting (Design-Bid-Build/Best Value).
