Thiess has been awarded an A$240 million nickel mining contract with PT Halmahera Sukses Mineral, marking Thiess’ second successful venture in the Indonesian nickel market this year and reflecting its capability to deliver world-class mining solutions for the metals industry.
“We are excited by this new contract award, which underscores Thiess’ expertise and strong track record in the Indonesian mining industry,” Thiess Executive Chair and CEO Michael Wright said. “It reaffirms our commitment to providing safe, sustainable, and innovative solutions to our clients while contributing to the growth of Indonesia’s nickel industry, a metal critical to enabling the global energy transition.”
During this 3.5-year contract, Thiess will deliver full mining operations including mine development, haul road construction, ore loading and hauling. The mine is situated in Central Halmahera, North Maluku, just 6 km from another Thiess operation, therefore consolidating its regional footprint and operational efficiency.
