Epiroc wins large order for battery-electric mining equipment in South Africa

Epiroc, a leading productivity partner for the mining and Infrastructure industries, has won a large order for battery-electric mining equipment from Assmang Proprietary Limited to be used at a manganese ore mine in South Africa.

Assmang has ordered several of Epiroc’s battery loaders and mine trucks – the Scooptram ST14 Battery and Minetruck MT42 Battery, respectively - that will be deployed at its Black Rock underground mine in the Northern Cape Province.

The order was booked in the first quarter 2022 and is valued at MSEK 120.

“Epiroc is proud to support Assmang on its journey toward lower emissions through the use of our cutting-edge battery-electric machines, while also prioritizing productivity and safety,” says Helena Hedblom, Epiroc’s President and CEO.
