The company was awarded a 12-month contract extension to its existing contract with mining major BHP Mitsubishi Alliance for the provision of mining and maintenance services at the Caval Ridge coal mine.
Thiess was also awarded a three-year contract by ASX-listed Austral Resources, worth an estimated A$95-million to develop and mine copper ore at the Anthill mine.
