France's 101km A19 Artenay-Courtenay Highway and Construction Equipment

With 4 million man hours put in by more than 8000 workers and tons of construction equipment, the French government's first eco-motorway and the biggest road infrastructure project to date has been finished.

For construction equipment for sale, visit MSloane Consulting.

The 101km A19 Artenay-Courtenay which links A10, A6 and A77, was completed a week ago, four months ahead of schedule. It completes the outer bypass of the greater Paris region.

It is the country's most eco-friendly road thanks to steps taken to prevent any water running off the motorway without being treated first. The road has 107 run-off treatment basins as well as animal crossings and lots of trees to suck up that carbon dioxide. Apart from its environmental credentials, the project is also being praised for its record fast completion.

More Mining Equipment for Gold Fields' 4% Production Increase

Gold-miner Gold Fields, based in South Africa, would again increase its gold production by 4% in the fourth quarter of the 2009 financial year and will probably need more mining equipment.

The company MSloane Consulting sells used and unused mining equipment for the mining indutry anywhere in the world. The company Gold Fields reported last May that it had increased production by 4% to 871 000 oz in the third quarter, saying it was expecting to achieve a similar increase in the fourth quarter.

Production in the three months to end June 30, 2009, was expected to reach about 905 000 oz of gold, with the South African operations increasing production by 2% to about 520 000 oz of gold, compared with 517 000 oz of gold in the previous quarter.

Used Construction Equipment for Nuclear Construction Projects

MSloane Consulting has its radars on any requirements from nuclear construction projects such as used construction equipment.

The recent successful auction of three Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) sites emphatically displayed the level of optimism surrounding the UK’s new nuclear power construction programme.

The sites were three plots of farmland − 178ha at Wylfa, Anglesey, 48ha at Oldbury, Gloucestershire, and 200ha at Bradwell, Essex − each adjacent to ageing Magnox nuclear power plants, which the NDA was attempting to sell during the biggest recession since the Great Depression.

With property and land prices in falling, the NDA placed a reserve price of £35M on each site and, although it was hopeful of raising more than this, it surely underestimated just how highly treasured these desolate strips of land were. The three sites sold in April for a combined total of £387M, with a joint venture of German generators Eon and RWE Npower buying Wylfa and Oldbury and French generator EDF snapping up Bradwell.

Used Mining Equipment for Sale and Laser Precision in Mining Automation Applications

Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) reports that Modern sensors are delivering data for the creation of 360° digital maps for mine machinery in the harshest conditions.

For used mining equipment for sale, visit MSloane Consulting.

Anyone who has spent even the shortest amount of time in a working mine will know the adversity of the conditions that can exist. An often hostile climate combines with the localised tempests of dust, heat and mist caused by the processes of digging or drilling into the earth to create some challenging environments. Decisions made in such conditions where senses are severely limited (sight especially) have always been subject to significantly increased risk. There is now a universal desire to reduce that risk.

Lasers have found regular but limited use in mining automation applications (such as Load Haul Dump vehicles) and applications of millimetre-radar are under trial with some promise. However, difficult mining conditions still threaten widespread use of both technologies. CSIRO’s ICT Centre identified the need to extend the potential use of these tools by establishing the performance parameters of scanning range sensors under adverse environmental conditions.

Mining Equipment: Forrestania Nickel Project

Western Areas plans to develop five mines at the Forrestania Nickel Project site by 2011 increasing their need for mining equipment, with targeted production of 35,000t per annum of nickel.

The Forrestania Nickel Project is located 400km east of Perth, Western Australia. The first mine to be developed is the Flying Fox containing some of the highest grade nickel in the world. The project also includes Archean Greenstone belts and substantial exploration potential. Two additional planned underground mines - Cosmic Boy and Diggers South - are wholly owned by Forrestania Nickel Project.

MSloane Consulting can help you assess whether brand new or used mining equipment is best for a particular mining function or for an entire project based on your financial position, project life-cycle, and post-project equipment valuation, asset liquidation and disposition scenarios.

The first stage is fully commissioned with an ore capacity of 300,000tpa. The second stage is scheduled for March 2010 to treat ore from the Spotted Quoll mine. Major infrastructure such as grid power, roads, water, tailings disposal and an airstrip is set for completion during the second stage.

Western Areas’ objective is to increase the capacity of the high-quality mineral resources at Forrestania to 40,000t of nickel in 2009. The Flying Fox mine started production in 2008 and produced 200,597t at 4.05%, containing 8,118t of nickel in concentrate.

Used Construction Equipment: Crossrail's Canary Wharf in London

Crossrail reached its first major construction milestone after the installation of the first tubular steel piles for the newly renamed Canary Wharf station. This is the beginning of the £15.9bn mega rail project.

In the photos, you will see the first pile installed, and renderings of the Canary Wharf. Used construction equipment are now widely used to save on equipment procurement and maintenance costs.

MSloane Consulting can help you assess whether brand new or used construction equipment is best for a particular construction function or for an entire project based on your financial position, project life cycle, and post-project equipment valuation, asset liquidation and disposition scenarios.

Crossrail's route will stretch 118km from Maidenhead and Heathrow in the west, through 21.5km of twin bored tunnels through central London, and on to Canary Wharf, Woolwich, Abbey Wood and Shenfield in the east.

Surveying and enabling works are already well underway at many locations along this route and the property acquisition process has also begun. And last weekend saw the closure of Charing Cross Road in London’s West End as plant was mobilised ready to tackle the demolition of buildings around Tottenham Court Road Underground station. This is being upgraded as part of London Underground improvement works and will also interface with a Crossrail station.

But all eyes are now on Canary Wharf station − known as Isle of Dogs until last week when it was renamed by developer Canary Wharf Group which is putting £150M into its construction. It will be the first station to be complete along the route and is scheduled to be ready for handover to Crossrail by summer 2012.

At that point the station will comprise a watertight cofferdam in the North Dock of West India Quay, running along the northern edge of Canary Wharf.

Once complete it will be ready to welcome the tunnel boring machine that will be working its way westward from the Limmo Peninsula across the Thames to the east.

Heavy Equipment for Sale: New Nickel Mineralization Discovered in Timmins, Ont.

Golden Chalice Resources announces their discovery of new nickel deposits approximately 500 meters east of the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone at its Langmuir Property, 35 km southeast of Timmins, Ont.

Mining equipment will soon move in position to mine this area. For heavy equipment for sale, for your mining operarions, visit MSloane Consulting.

Hole GCL09-11, the last hole of the 2009 winter drilling program, returned elevated nickel mineralization grading up to 0.34% nickel over a 2.4-meter drilled width from 372.50 to 374.90 meters, which includes 0.5% nickel over 0.7 meters.

The host rock is a channel peridotite flow horizon similar to that hosting the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone (W4), where drilling in May of 2007 had intersected 1.14% nickel over 72.5 meters., and the recent significant W2 Nickel Discovery of 1.72% nickel over 3.0 meters , about 1.5 km east of the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone. Company geologists have not yet determined whether this is a new channel flow horizon hosting nickel sulphides or is the same flow horizon hosting nickel mineralization in either the Langmuir Nickel Discovery Zone (W4) or the W2 Discovery.
