Global mining technology company Weir has been awarded an order to supply a crushing circuit for Brightstar Resources’ Laverton Processing Plant, part of the Goldfields gold project in Western Australia.

The value of the contract has not been disclosed but includes the company’s recently upgraded ENDURON ET series jaw crusher and ENDURON EC series cone crusher. Weir will also supply WARMAN pumps and CAVEX hydrocyclones for the project.

“Weir is focused on bringing new technologies and solutions to market that help miners overcome their most pressing challenges,” says Weir GM: APAC Equipment Solutions Jyotirmoy Roy.

The company says it worked with GR Engineering Services on the circuit design and will support the installation and commissioning of the 1.5-million-ton-a-year gold processing facility. First gold production at Brightstar is targeted for mid-2027.

“Today, miners are taking a more holistic view of their operations rather than looking at pieces of equipment in isolation, as they increasingly consider the impact of upstream operations on downstream activities, and vice versa. Weir has a portfolio of equipment spanning the mining value chain which allows us to enable this approach,” says Roy.

The company affirms that its extensive service network ensures comprehensive customer support, from commissioning to ramp-up, through to a fully operational plant.
