Barrick Gold, a worldwide sector-leading gold and copper producer, initiated the Goldstrike Project in Carlin, Nevada, USA.
Goldstrike identified the need for various enhancements, including duct sizing and Dust Suppression System improvements for the Crusher circuit, reduction in Fresh Water usage through the Strip Circuit, and preparation of AutoCAD drawings for a new freshwater line in the O2 Plant.
Situated 50 miles northwest of Elko, the Goldstrike Project encompasses a 5,000 ft elevated open pit, representing Barrick’s largest producer. TMG provided Project Engineering and Project Management services for Sustaining Capital Projects, focusing on improvements in several key areas.
