Barakee Rental Services has marked a significant milestone by deploying their first mobile scalping screen to Cundaline Resources, forming an Indigenous partnership in the contract crushing sector.
The collaboration starts with an iron ore project on a BHP mine site.
The introduction of Barakee's scalping screen enhances the ore processing process, with the aim of optimising iron ore production.
Barakee said on Thursday that its precise screening capabilities ensure high-quality output; vital for meeting industry standards.
Jordan Pedley, Director of Barakee, and Brendan Taylor, CEO of Cundaline Resources, forged the alliance after a chance encounter at a WA Mining Club Luncheon.
The companies said that the alignment of values between Cundaline Resources and Barakee is "evident in their commitment to excellence, sustainability, and Indigenous empowerment".
The project will be led by Nancy Tait.
Working with Cundaline and Barakee is The OreTech Resources team, who will address the specific project needs and ensure the equipment on site was constantly humming along.
In a statement issued Thursday, Barakee said the partnership signifies "a step forward in Indigenous participation and underscores the industry's evolution towards inclusive and sustainable practices".
"As Barakee and Cundaline join forces, they pave the way for an exciting future in Australia's mining landscape," the company said.
