Project Summary

As part of infrastructure improvements at Bengalla Mining Company (New Hope Group), Daracrete was engaged in the BMC-Workshop Apron & Hardstand Upgrade project. This project focused on enhancing the functionality and resilience of key maintenance areas within the active mine site at Bengalla, NSW.

In total, Daracrete supplied over 900m³ of S40MPa concrete reinforced with steel fibres (dosed at 40kg/m³), along with approximately 150m³ of 20MPa concrete, engineered to withstand the heavy-duty operational demands of a mining environment.

Key Services Provided

Concrete supply to mine sites in full compliance with mine site requirements, including inducted drivers and escorted deliveries under strict regulatory protocols.
Use of Agitator trucks compliant with Bengalla Golden Rules, maintaining site safety and operational stability.

This project also demonstrated the vertical integration of Daracon Group’s products and services including:

Concrete supply from Daracrete, utilising Daracon Group’s inhouse concreters and poly welders to support onsite works. This ensured consistency and quality across all aspects of project delivery.
Supply of over 40,000 tonnes of pavement materials from Ardglen Quarry, including a specially developed stabilised road base known as ‘Ardstand’. The engineered blend was created to meet the project's specific material performance criteria.
