Core Civil Mining delivers specialist underground civil and construction services to operating gold, nickel, copper, and base metal mines across Western Australia. Working in underground environments demands a uniquely disciplined approach to safety, logistics, and quality management — and our underground crews bring the training, certifications, and practical experience to execute complex civil packages deep below surface. From portal construction and collar works through to drainage systems, concrete lining, and full services reticulation within active development drives and production levels, we integrate with mine production schedules to deliver civil scope without disrupting ore movement or impacting the critical path.
Our underground construction capability includes mine portal excavation and support, collar concrete, shotcrete application, rock bolt and mesh installation, development drive invert concreting, concrete kerbing, level cross-cuts, underground drainage collection and gravity drain installation, and civils fitout for pump stations, crib rooms, workshops, refuge chambers, electrical substations, and paste fill distribution systems. All supervision holds current underground supervisor certificates of competency, and all works are conducted under site-specific underground operating procedures, traffic management plans, and emergency response protocols in compliance with the Mines Safety and Inspection Act 1994 (WA) and the relevant DMIRS code of practice.
Core Civil Mining provides underground concrete lining and shotcrete services for mine development and infrastructure fitout, including invert concrete, culvert construction, structured drainage channels, sump construction, and mass concrete for equipment pads and bulkheads. Our underground drainage systems are designed and constructed to manage the high volumes of groundwater and service water inherent to WA underground operations — with gravity drain networks, collection sumps, and pump station civils all coordinated as an integrated water management solution from the development level to the main dewatering system. Effective underground water management reduces equipment damage risk, improves underfoot conditions, and directly contributes to personnel safety throughout the mine.
We provide complete underground services reticulation including compressed air reticulation, fire main and water service pipework, compressed air starters, electrical conduit installation, communications and data cabling infrastructure, and paste fill distribution pipework — all coordinated with civil, electrical, and mechanical trade contractors to the mine layout and services schedule. All underground civil construction works are executed under Core Civil Mining's integrated HSEQ management system with mandatory underground-specific inductions, pre-start inspections, DPI tagging and isolation procedures, and re-entry protocols maintained for every work crew on every shift. Our commitment to safety underground is non-negotiable — and our record reflects it across every project we have completed in WA's underground mining sector.
From first earthwork to final commissioning - explore what Core Civil Mining brings to your site.
From large-scale cut-and-fill operations to precision finished grades, Core Civil Mining executes earthworks on mine sites, processing facilities, and civil infrastructure projects across WA. Our GPS-equipped dozer and grader fleet ensures tight tolerances on every formation.
Learn MoreWe construct and maintain high-specification haul roads, light vehicle tracks, rail formation works, and remote airstrips. Our teams are experienced in pavement design, formation drainage, and ongoing grading and maintenance programs in the harshest WA environments.
Learn MoreEffective water management is critical to mine site productivity. We deliver pit dewatering, bore field management, open drain and culvert construction, sedimentation pond installation, and stormwater diversions - ensuring your site remains safe and operational through wet season conditions.
Learn MoreCore Civil Mining has extensive experience in the construction, staged raising, and rehabilitation of tailings storage facilities (TSFs). We work to engineer-approved designs and strict regulatory requirements, delivering safe, stable, and environmentally compliant structures throughout their operational life.
Learn MoreOur mobile and semi-fixed crushing and screening plant allows on-site processing of run-of-mine ore, blasted rock, and construction materials. By producing graded aggregates at the point of use, we significantly reduce double-handling and haulage costs, improving project economics for our clients.
Learn MoreKeeping your civil infrastructure and plant in peak condition is critical to operational continuity. Core Civil Mining provides scheduled preventive maintenance, reactive breakdown response, road grading programs, culvert cleaning, and civil asset inspection across active mine sites and remote facilities.
Learn MoreCore Civil Mining delivers specialist civil and construction services in underground environments including portal construction, decline development support, concrete lining, drainage installation, services reticulation, and underground infrastructure fitout. All works are executed under strict WHS protocols specific to underground mining operations.
Learn MoreOur SMP capability covers structural steel fabrication and erection, mechanical equipment installation and commissioning, and process piping for mineral processing plants, concentrate handling systems, and mine infrastructure. We work alongside principal contractors and owner-operators to deliver reliable, code-compliant installations.
