Mining & Quarrying

A&G Price Ltd has long been associated with the Australasian mining industry, starting in 1868 in Thames to support the Coromandel Peninsula gold rush. The company initially produced stamper batteries, pelton wheels, boilers, and locomotives while providing engineering services to the growing mining sector. Today, A&G Price continues to serve the mining industry by delivering heavy engineering services to both local and international clients, including Vale Nickel, Koniambo Nickel, SLN Nickel in New Caledonia, PT Inco in Sulawesi, and Oceania Gold. They also supply components to mining equipment manufacturers like Metso Minerals, Rocklabs, and Weir Minerals Australia. A&G Price produces a variety of cast wear parts and has developed 'Crushalloy,' a material offering enhanced durability compared to standard options. The company also offers repair, refurbishment, and replacement services for stone and lime crushers, along with full machining, welding, fabrication, and fitting services at their Thames workshops.
