Cooperation to the next level

Macasa dealer cooperation

In 2018, BAS Mining Trucks delivered 12 mining trucks to two different mining companies in Ecuador. Four Volvo FMX 10x4 tippers will be used by Logimin for the transport of limestone. Eight Volvo FMX 10x6 tippers will be in operation at the Fruta del Norte gold deposit (LundinGold) for infrastructural activities (construction of dams) and for the transport of raw material for the cement factory.

AGENCY AGREEMENT WITH MACASA, ECUADOR

Repair and maintenance will be carried out on site by Macasa, official distributor of Volvo Trucks in Ecuador. Luis Fernando Gómes Rosales, Executive President of Macasa and Bas van Heertum, CEO of BAS Mining Trucks, have therefore signed an agency agreement. This agreement states that Macasa is the commercial agent for BAS Mining Trucks in Ecuador. This really takes cooperation to the next level. BAS Mining Trucks delivers the trucks that are best fit for the job, service will be carried out and covered by a local company. We are looking forward to a successful partnership with Macasa.

FRUTA DEL NORTE – LUNDIN GOLD

The Fruta del Norte deposit is the largest gold deposits in Ecuador and a world class discovery. The deposit is located in the south-east of the country in Zamora-Chinchipe Provence. It is a large, high-grade gold deposit with probable reserves of 5.02 million ounces of gold grading at 8.74 grams per tonne. Construction began mid-2017 and first gold is expected in the fourth quarter of 2019.
