MINING, TUNNELLING & UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION
RIX is focused on providing safe, efficient and cost effective ground support solutions to our mining and tunneling clients.
RIX’s extensive knowledge and experience in mining and tunnel environments in Asia Pacific continues to expand. To date, RIX has completed many challenging projects in both coal and hard rock mining sectors as well as tunnelling and underground construction. RIX has developed several innovative methodologies and technologies to safely deliver these works within the time and budget constraints.
Examples of such innovations include:
- A man basket with integrated drill mast by which the drilling angle is infinitely variable from vertical to horizontal;
- The Antonov automated permanent anchor installation system;
- The straight boom crawler drill capable of drilling holes to 4.2m in a single pass at heights of 23m.
