MDM Argyle Diamond Mine Closure Project

Almost 40 years since its inception, at the Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia’s Kimberley region, a multitude of works continues with the closure of the Argyle Diamond Mine. Managed by Liberty Industrial, the ongoing success and progress of the closure project is underpinned by its capable teams of workers, many of which are Traditional Owner individuals employed by local businesses.  

These businesses have all played a pivotal key role in the successful completion of the first phase of the demolition, civil, and remediation activities for the mine closure.  

For Liberty Industrial, local engagement and sustainable positive contributions to the local community goes beyond the closure project itself. “We strive to maximise opportunities for our Traditional Owner business partners, such as long-term employment, training and business opportunities,” says Brett Kirby, WA State Manager at Liberty Industrial. 

“This commitment underscores our dedication to building lasting and positive relationships with Traditional Owner business partners, by contributing to their local prosperity throughout the duration of the project, and in the long term.” 

These Traditional Owner business partners have been instrumental in successful outcomes by supporting the delivery of services outlined:  

  • ARC Electrical & Power Electrical and power services used for testing and tagging and commissioning of electrical equipment. 
  • D&H Contracting Pty Ltd Wet hire of grader equipment for road maintenance and water services site-wide.  
  • Daam Surveys Surveying services used progressively throughout the duration of the project for ground disturbance permitting, volume quantifications for claims, setting out civil construction works. 
  • DJ Rivers Electrical Electrical and power services used for testing and tagging and commissioning of electrical equipment. 
  • Dowell Mechanical Services Pty Ltd Labour hire for mechanical support and service truck operator.  
  • Gooring Jimbila Contracting Mining infrastructure maintenance services; road maintenance, plant hire, and utility service providers (plumbing and electrical). 
  • McGinty Family Trust Waste management services, skip and water trucks. 
  • MDM Mining & Civil Pty Ltd Civil and bulk earthworks; landfill and containment cell constructions, earth moving, land clearing, management of waste inside landfill cells, and wet hire of plant and equipment.  


“The team and I take great pride in reflecting on our achievements thus far in the project, particularly the successful outcomes through our collabor
ation with Traditional Owner businesses. This sense of accomplishment is widely shared across all Liberty Industrial team members on the Argyle Project. We would like to thank these local businesses for their significant skilled and cultural contribution to the project.” said Brett Kirby.
