We leverage our core competence and expertise to deliver major projects to developing economies. At Bulyanhulu mine in Tanzania, Murray & Roberts subsidiary, RUC, in joint venture with Thyssen Schachtbau and Byrnecut, is sinking a vertical service shaft and doing major underground development work. Bulyanhulu, which is owned by a subsidiary of Barrick Gold, boasts one of the richest gold deposits in the world. The joint venture designed and constructed a mid-shaft loading system which allows hoisting through the upper section while the rest of the shaft is sunk. Roland Berndt, Murray & Roberts chief engineer, Henry Laas, RUC managing director and Mike Carlisle, Bulyanhulu project manager, survey the site.
