GR Engineering Services has been awarded a $68 million EPC contract by Northparkes Mining Services, a unit of Evolution Mining, for a coarse particle flotation project in New South Wales. The upgrade aims to boost copper recovery and energy efficiency.
According to a company disclosure, GR Engineering Services Limited (ASX: GNG) has received an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract from Northparkes Mining Services Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Evolution Mining Limited, for the Northparkes Coarse Particle Flotation Project.
The project site is located approximately 300 kilometers west of Sydney, New South Wales. The contract is valued at $68 million, with early works already initiated. Execution will be managed by GR Engineering’s Brisbane-based team.
This development matters because improved copper recovery directly benefits the global energy transition supply chain, given copper’s critical role in electrification and renewable energy infrastructure.
For mining equipment suppliers and process technology providers, the project signals ongoing investment in brownfield upgrades rather than greenfield expansions. Investors should note that coarse particle flotation technology reduces energy consumption and grinding costs, offering operational expenditure advantages.
The contract strengthens GR Engineering’s order book in the base metals segment, with potential follow-on opportunities in Australia’s copper sector.
GR Engineering is an Australian multidisciplinary engineering firm providing EPC and consulting services to the mining and minerals processing sector.
Evolution Mining is a mid-tier gold and copper producer listed on the ASX.
