Latest Development: Tahmoor Contract (9 October 2026)

On 9 October 2026, Mastermyne announced the execution of a new mining services contract with GMT Mining Pty Ltd relating to the proposed restart and ongoing operation of the Tahmoor mine in the Illawarra region of New South Wales.

The initial two-year contract is expected to generate gross revenues of about $80 million. Two two-year extension options would lift gross revenues to about $240 million over the full six-year term if taken up.

Latest Development: Workforce and Ownership

The contract is expected to provide around 160 roles. Tahmoor has been acquired by a consortium of M Group and GEAR, with the mine to be operated by GM3. Mastermyne said the work builds on its existing contracts with GM3 at the Appin and Dendrobium mines and would take its total workforce to more than 1,000.

About the Company

Mastermyne provides mining services to coal operators, and its Revenue depends on the number and scale of its contracts. Its existing long-term arrangements include work at GM3 mines in the Illawarra.

Sector Context

Underground coal mining in New South Wales is shaped by global coal demand, mine plans and regulatory approvals. Contractors are often engaged on multi-year terms, but contract value depends on mine production schedules.

Risks to Watch

The contract includes extension options, so the $240 million figure is conditional and not guaranteed. The Tahmoor restart depends on the operator's plans, and delays would affect contract timing. Concentration on a small group of customers adds to the risk.

What Lies Ahead

Investors will be watching for the Tahmoor restart timetable, the exercise of the extension options and the company's next update on workforce and revenue.

Final Word

The announcement describes a substantial contract with a defined initial term and extension options. The revenue profile will depend on how the Tahmoor operation progresses.
