DISA Technologies has closed a US$33 million strategic financing round led by Galvanize, with participation from BHP Ventures, to scale its mineral processing, domestic uranium remediation and resource recovery platform. CEO Greyson Buckingham positions the funding as a growth milestone for deploying DISA’s high‑impact processing solutions across critical minerals and legacy uranium sites in the United States. For miners and remediation contractors, the deal signals growing backing from majors for specialised processing technologies targeting both production and clean‑up of uranium and other critical commodities.

Cementation Canada has secured the underground ore and waste handling system construction contract at Alamos Gold’s Island Gold Mine in Dubreuilville, Ontario, returning after completing underground development and construction work there in 2019 and 2021. The scope centres on new materials handling infrastructure to support Island Gold’s expanding underground operations, where hoisting capacity and efficient waste movement are key constraints in deep narrow-vein mining. For geotechnical and mining teams, the award signals continued capital investment in underground materials handling upgrades rather than short-term contract development.

Komatsu Rental has expanded its full-service equipment rental offering into Western Australia, giving contractors in construction, quarrying and mining short- and medium-term access to Komatsu earthmoving and production machinery without capital outlay. The fleet includes late-model excavators, loaders and haul trucks with factory-integrated telematics and emissions-compliant engines, supplied with maintenance, parts and condition monitoring bundled into the hire rate. For project managers facing tighter delivery timelines and cost pressures, the model allows rapid up- or down-scaling of fleet size without long-term ownership risk or workshop overheads.
