Construction Equipment: Kittila Gold Mine

Construction Equipment: Road construction and other infrastructure is on-going at the Kittila gold mine in preparation for its mining operations. MSloane Consulting provides used construction equipment as well as mining equipment worldwide.

The Kittila gold mine is located 900km to the north of Helsinki, Finland, at the Suurikuusikko gold deposit. It was constructed in 2006 and has an approximate gold reserve of 3.2 million ounces.

Named after the community that resides nearby, the mine is poised to become one of the largest gold-producing mines in Europe. Its commercial production began in September 2008 and the first gold was poured in January 2009.
