Mining

Southern Explosives Supplies delivers flexible drill and blast capability for owner miners, mining contractors and specialist drill and blast providers. From dry hire to experienced labour and drilling-only support to a fully integrated Full Service Drill and Blast Service, SES can align people, equipment and accountability with the mine plan.

Our mining capability covers production and overburden drilling, pre-split and trim work, grade-control support, blast design, survey, explosives logistics, shotfiring, monitoring and blast reconciliation. Modern drill rigs, GPS-enabled hole navigation on selected equipment and experienced technical teams help improve drilling accuracy, blast performance and operating consistency across changing ground conditions.

Every scope is built around the outcome the operation needs: reliable metres, controlled walls, ore recovery, reduced dilution, consistent fragmentation, improved diggability or better downstream throughput. SES can provide long-term contract delivery, project campaigns, shutdown and surge support, supplementary crews or selected dry-hire equipment. In-house maintenance, field service, spares planning and mobilisation support strengthen equipment availability and reduce the hand-offs that put production schedules at risk.
