2026 Winners
Meet the 2026 cohort of finalists and winners for the Queensland Mining Awards.
Queensland Mining Contractor of the Year
FMS Group – Mackay-based FMS Group impressed the judges with a strong engineered approach to removing both people from harm and days from shutdowns with all their project submissions.
Their Dipper Skid System cut electric shovel shutdown durations by 24 to 36 hours across six projects by eliminating live testing and crane interaction, eliminating a long-standing hazard.
The company’s Safety Lift Solutions division also delivered what it describes as a world first, removing both engine modules from a Liebherr R9800 while the machine remained supported on jacks. Run concurrently with a slew bearing changeout for a Bowen Basin client, it saved up to three days of labour.
Glencore Productivity Award
Winner
Mammoet Australia – Peak Downs Dragline Relocation
Mammoet relocated a 3,100-tonne Marion 8050 dragline 27km across Peak Downs Mine, crossing an active Aurizon rail line within a strict 72-hour window – missing this window could have delayed the project by three months.
Using Self-Propelled Modular Transporters and JS500 jacking systems, the move distributed weight over 560 tyres. Completed in 10 days, it was 70% faster than traditional self-walking, setting a new Australian benchmark.
Finalists
FMS Group – R9800 Module Removal
Petra Data Science – MAXTA Drill & Blast ®5.0
QME Best New Product Award
Winner
Lucas Drilling – ‘Illuminator’ Integrated Coal Seam Drilling and Boundary Mapping
The Illuminator uses coal-optimised azimuthal resistivity to map seam boundaries during rotary and slide drilling, the first reliable system in Australia to do so. It replaces sparse confirmation points, like roof-touches and post-drill logging, which left complex zones uncertain until corrective drilling.
Over 28,000 metres drilled, it has pinpointed 40 faults and 60 dip changes, reducing average drilling time per well by about 13.7 hours.
Finalists
Blackwoods Collaboration Award
Winner
Pentacon | BMA – HV/LV Separation Road
Pentacon and BMA Engineering co-developed a 2.3km light vehicle access road to separate vehicles, following an increase in heavy vehicle traffic, which was flagged as a risk under BMA’s Fatality Elimination program.
The two teams ran joint risk assessments and daily coordination meetings, integrating construction directly into live production rather than working around it. The road achieved exceptional engineering jobcard compliance with zero disruption to production throughout the build.
Finalists
Anglo American | Jet Group – Mini Face Bolter
Avetta | Whitehaven Coal – ‘Ready to Work’ At Scale Project
Hastings Deering Innovation (Miner) Award
Winner
Kestrel Coal Resources – Development Conveyor Bunkering Automation
Development conveyors have traditionally run in a fixed sequence with outbye trunk conveyors, meaning any downstream outage halted underground development entirely and narrowed maintenance windows.
Kestrel Coal Resources built an automated bunkering system that runs development conveyors independently, surging coal at the bootend and pausing between shuttle car cycles to create a time-based buffer.
The system has delivered 2,561 cycles and 1,280 extra metres of roadway development in 2025, over 7% of the annual development.
Finalists
Anglo American – Mini Face Bolter
Anglo American – ‘Armadillo’: Eliminating High-Risk Excavation Over Live Conveyors
Macmahon Safety Initiative Award
Winner
Anglo American – ‘Armadillo’: Eliminating High-Risk Excavation Over Live Conveyors
Excavating above a live underground conveyor creates a high-risk environment. Anglo American’s Aquila Mine and Jet Group developed The Armadillo, a mobile guard system that shields workers from blast debris and ground hazards.
With the Armadillo, excavation in a 1.6 -1.8 metre seam was completed safely, with zero injuries, conveyor damage, or shutdowns. This effective design is adaptable for industry-wide use.
Finalists

Bravus Mining & Resources – ‘Foodie’: Automated Food Waste Reduction
Remote accommodation villages generate costly, emissions-intensive food waste that often requires long-distance transport to landfills. At Bravus’s Carmichael mine village, Foodie (a rapid thermophilic processor) breaks down food waste onsite within 24 hours.
The processed material is repurposed in the mine’s rehabilitation efforts, turning waste into a resource without leaving the site. This system diverts 2.8 tonnes of waste monthly from landfill, cutting over 100 tonnes of CO2-equivalent emissions annually.
Finalists
National Group Community, Staff Engagement or EEO Award
Winner
Kaefer Australia – Scaffold Cadetship Program
Short-course, standard scaffolding certification in Australia generally offers little support for people entering the industry without prior exposure. KAEFER Australia built a 12-week cadetship that combines hands-on trade training with extended mentoring and a direct pathway into site-based roles.
The inaugural Queensland cohort of 12 cadets included five First Nations participants and two women, in a trade where female participation has historically sat near 1%.
Finalists
BUMA Australia – ‘Braking the Cycle’ Mentoring Program
BMA, Barada Barna and Greening Australia – Bargala Nanhi Seed Project
Austmine Innovation (METS) Award
Winner
FMS Group – Dipper Skid and Hoist Rope Install Jig
Until recently, changing a hoist rope on an electric shovel required a live shovel and a crane working alongside. FMS Group’s frontline teams developed a pneumatic jig, dipper counterweight, and skid mechanism to replace hoist ropes on electric shovels without using a crane or powering up the equipment.
After testing over six shutdowns, this method cut downtime by two to three days and eliminated the hazard.
