Australia: Adelaide Brighton has secured a renewal of its contract with BHP for supply of cement and lime to its Olympic Dam, South Australia mine until 2026. The producer has said that the contract would generate US$116m in revenue for the group over the full six year term of the deal.
Chief executive officer (CEO) Nick Miller said, “We are pleased to extend our long-term relationship with BHP at its Olympic Dam project, which demonstrates the strength of our integrated cement and lime position, as well as our high quality and cost competitive product offering. We thank BHP for supporting a home-grown producer over an imported product, which protects local jobs and benefits the broader South Australian economy.
