Mine Reopens Just Nine Days after Major Fire

Project Scope

When fire damaged a Michigan iron ore mine last December and threatened to collapse a 400-foot long suspended limestone conveyor system, CR Meyer was called into engineer a solution to stabilize, decommission and dismantle the conveyor. The wide range of round-the-clock engineering and demolition expertise and manpower saved the mine from a long-term shutdown that would have resulted from the conveyor system falling onto the mine’s centralized electrical equipment.

The mine was back in operation just nine days after the fire.
