A Step Towards Decarbonization

The announcement of this collaboration comes on the heels of Komatsu unveiling its innovative 400-ton PC4000-11E hydraulic mining excavator last year. This evolution in equipment not only showcases Komatsu’s commitment to advancing technology but also aligns with the global trend among mining operations to decarbonize their processes. The adaptation of electric machinery is a crucial step towards reducing carbon footprints in the construction and mining sectors.

Our partnership with Komatsu is an important part of that vision.” He highlights the proven reliability and performance of Komatsu’s equipment across Barrick’s global operations, instilling confidence in their ability to meet the ambitious sustainability goals set for Reko Diq.

This exciting partnership not only reflects the commitment of both companies to innovate but also paves the way for developing one of the world’s newest greenfield mining assets, emphasizing a more sustainable approach in the industry.
