Smart And Effective Mining Solutions

Delivering integrated underground and surface mining services with precision, safety, and performance at the core.

Underground Mining (Conventional & Trackless)

We operate in both conventional and trackless underground environments, offering drilling, blasting, mucking, and support installation services. Our experienced teams manage narrow-reef and wide-reef mining with precision and a strong safety culture, ensuring productivity without compromising standards.

Surface Mining (Opencast)

Our surface mining operations include stripping, drilling, blasting, and hauling. We manage opencast sites with a focus on environmental responsibility, equipment efficiency, and continuous improvement, helping clients optimise recovery from surface resources.

Drilling Operations

EBJ offers a wide range of drilling services, tailored to exploration and production needs:


Exploration Drilling: For mineral assessment and core sampling.

Long Hole Drilling: Precision drilling for production blasting and ore extraction.

Diamond Drilling: For detailed geotechnical and resource evaluation.

Cover Drilling: Casing and securing of underground areas.

Load & Haul Operations

We provide full-scale load and haul services, supported by a fleet of dump trucks, LHDs, and other heavy-duty equipment. Our logistics and haul road maintenance ensure continuous flow from mining face to surface stockpile or processing plants.

Dust Suppression

Dust control is critical in both surface and underground environments. We implement efficient dust suppression systems to reduce airborne particulates, improve visibility, and protect worker health and environmental compliance.

Processing of Mine Dumps – Rock Dumps & Tailings

We recover valuable minerals from historical waste material through screening, processing, and haulage operations. Our solutions help mining operations unlock additional value from legacy mine sites.

Drop Raising (Standard & Inverse)

We specialise in conventional and inverse drop raising techniques, used for rapid vertical development of ore passes and ventilation shafts. Our skilled crews execute these operations safely and efficiently with minimal disruption to surrounding infrastructure.

Thin Spray Lining (TSL)

We manufacture, supply, and apply TSL products to stabilise underground excavations. TSL acts as a protective membrane over rock surfaces, improving safety, sealing fractured ground, and reducing fall-of-ground incidents.

Box Fronts, Bunkers & Silo Construction

EBJ designs, constructs, and repairs ore transfer structures including box fronts, bunkers, and silos. These are engineered to optimise ore flow and support high-capacity mining operations underground and on surface.

Secondary Support Services: Mesh & Lace, Sets Installation

We enhance ground stability through customised support systems:


Mesh & Lace: For surface containment and rock control.

Sets Installation: Timber, steel, or mechanical sets based on ground conditions and client requirements.

Vamping & Sweepings

Our vamping teams recover ore from previously mined or abandoned areas. Services include:


Haulage vamping

Cross-cut cleanups

Sweepings of residual ore zones

These processes maximise yield and improve site cleanliness.

Logistics & Tramming

We offer tramming and underground logistics services, ensuring smooth material movement and minimising production delays. This includes ore transport, equipment relocation, and coordination of shaft operations.

Labour Provision

We supply skilled and certified labour to fulfil a wide range of mining job requirements, from winch operators and drill rig crews to support installation teams. All staff are safety-trained and aligned to site-specific requirements.

Rehabilitation of Old Workings

We assist clients in reopening and securing historical mining areas, including the re-support, cleaning, and ventilation of old workings. Our methods ensure these zones meet current safety standards and are fit for use or inspection.
