Asia

Redpath has broad experience in Indonesia, Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan

With over four decades of dedicated experience in Asia, our company has successfully built strong partnerships and delivered innovative solutions tailored to the unique needs of the region. In the last 10 years, Redpath has undertaken projects in the following Asian countries:

Indonesia

Incorporated in 1995, and based in Jakarta, PT Redpath Indonesia, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Redpath Mining Inc. Jakarta has proven to be an excellent base to manage this region’s growth potential and opportunities. In 1982, what started off as a relatively standard contract raisebore operation with PT Freeport Indonesia, eventually grew into the longest running project in the company’s history, currently in its 40th year. It is still in existence today! Historically providing services and support, the magnitude and duration of this project created the need for development and training of a large domestic workforce, which at its peak in 2018, numbered over 1,600 employees.

Notable achievements - Indonesia

Mongolia

In a region offering tremendous growth opportunities, Redpath Mongolia was incorporated in 2004 and established headquarters in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. Previously that same year, the company had secured the contract to sink multiple shafts and provide primary mine development for the Ivanhoe Mines’ world class Oyu Tolgoi Copper Gold deposit. The project site is situated in Southern Mongolia in the heart of the Gobi Desert flatlands. Here the winds reach up to 200 kms/hr and temperatures can range from plus 40 degrees Celsius to minus 35 Celsius.

This extremely harsh working environment called for unique, logistical expertise and Redpath was up to the challenge. In January, 2008, and at a depth of 1,385 metres, the company completed the deepest mine shaft ever sunk in Mongolia. Joining our workforce to help develop our local administrative capabilities, highly educated Mongolians have proven to be an excellent resource for recruiting.

In 2015, Dayan Contract Mining LLC (DCM) was established as a joint venture between Redpath Mongolia LLC and Hasu Megawatt LLC. In 2016, DCM was named a major contractor for Oyu Tolgoi’s (OT) underground mining and support services.

Kazakhstan

Redpath’s presence in Kazakhstan is represented through the locally incorporated TuranIndustrial LLP entity. The company was founded in 2019 as part of RUC and is now integrated into Redpath’s global operations. TuranIndustrial focuses on mine development and infrastructure projects that improve safety, productivity, and efficiency through advanced mechanization, automation, and digitalization. Currently operating with a workforce of 292 people, TuranIndustrial continues to enhance its capabilities and expand its reach, driving progress and setting new benchmarks in Kazakhstan’s mining industry.

Notable Achievements - Kazakhstan

Kyrgyzstan

Redpath provided contracting services to the Kumtor Mine in the Tien Shan Mountains about 60kms north of the border with the Peoples Republic of China. At a 4,000-metre elevation, and with geological conditions influenced by the Davydov glacier located above, Redpath assembled a skilled multicultural workforce to complete this project.
