Central Queensland – Background information

Central Queensland covers the major cities of Mackay, Gladstone and Rockhampton, and covers the Central Highlands and western central towns of Emerald and Longreach. It includes rural towns in North Burnett, the Bowen Basin Coalfields, and remote outback towns as far as Birdsville, and the Queensland border. The Central Highlands, part of the larger region known as the ‘Bowen Basin’, is home to numerous coal mines due to the rich mineral deposits in the area. Coal is extracted from the mines and transported to port facilities at Port of Gladstone via the Blackwater railway system or to both Hay Point in Mackay and Abbot Point north of Bowen via the Goonyella railway line.

GRT Case Studies – Central Queensland

GRT offers underground and CHPP dust suppression services to coal mines in Central Queensland. The following case study provides an account of how GRT solves coal dust challenges faced on site. Haul roads are the backbone of mining operations. The following case study shows how our contribution to haul road dust suppression in Central Queensland. 

GRT dust suppression applications and products 

Drilling: The economic value of drilling operations should not happen at the expense of worker safety and health. It is important to implement industry best practice to ensure dust produced from drilling do not pose any health hazards to the mineworkers. We offer effective blast and drill dust control. 

Product: GRT: 12X 

Blasting: GRT takes a no-compromise stance to save lives and its sole mandate is to offer solutions at the apex of solving any dust-related problem arising from blasting activities before it takes place. We offer effective blast pattern dust suppression solutions. 

Product: GRT: DC Binder 

Haul roads: Reports indicate that a mine site uses 9.4 million litres of water per day on just its haul road activities. Water is not only unsustainable but also very ineffective as a haul road dust suppression method. Using GRT:Haul-Loc results in great operational improvement and massive cost savings in water usage and fuel used for water truck movements. 

Product: GRT: Haul-Loc 

Stockpiles: We have grown a rapport across many industries for tackling stockpile dust challenges on different sites. Mining is one of our major areas. So, why wait to hear it from elsewhere when you can get it first hand from us.

Product: GRT: ACTIVATE, GRT: ORE-LOC

Conveyor belts: GRT implements a combination of chemistry and particle size in making water work for conveyor belt dust control. We wet the material to optimal moisture content, preventing fines from being carried off into the air, or to the air above the material, to return airborne fines to the material bed. The material doesn’t have to be handled again.
