Toronto-listed Nevada Copper has replaced its mining contractor at the Pumpkin Hollow mine, in Nevada, with Redpath USA, which will now be the principal underground mining contractor for the project going forward.
The move comes as Pumpkin Hollow is ramping up to full capacity, having started production in December.
“Redpath is considered throughout the mining industry as the partner of choice for production ramp up and we are excited to be working with them during this important period of growth,” commented Nevada Copper CEO Matt Gili.
