FAM Opencast Mining Technology – Turnkey Solutions for Your Plants

The supply of primary raw materials to industry and agriculture is of particular importance for every country’s economy. The extraction of fossils and mineral raw materials from deposits is the task of mining operations. The most commonly extracted materials in opencast mining are lignite and hard coal, stones and soils, ores, bauxite and phosphate.

We at FAM are right in the middle of the action.

With a complex assortment of sizable and individual machines for opencast mining, such as bucket wheel excavators, belt wagons, belt conveyors, etc., FAM provides the core systems for the extraction, transportation and processing of raw materials.
