The BLG Machinery DEVELON fleet: dump truck, excavator and wheel loader, staged on site at golden hour

Black Lion Group · Machinery

Heavy equipment, and a schedule that holds.

Dump trucks, excavators, loaders and crushing plant, moving chrome and copper across South Africa and Namibia. You tell us the tonnes and the window. The uptime is our problem, not yours.

Nothing between you and the work.

When a shovel stops, there is no rate card to argue over and no sub-contractor to chase. The machine, the operator and the fix all sit with us, so you get one team to hold to account and a cost per tonne we can explain line by line.

The fleet runs on 2025-model DEVELON equipment, backed by a direct Doosan Equipment partnership. In practice that means a part is an afternoon away rather than a fortnight, and the fleet can grow with your job instead of capping it.

What we can put on your site.

Our own fleet runs mostly DEVELON. Everything else we source across the South African market, deliver to your site and keep running to the same standard, whatever the make and whatever the class.

If it moves earth or processes ore, tell us the spec and the window and we will price it honestly.

Mining

Our sister division runs two producing mines of its own. Drill and blast, geology, survey, mine planning and processing all sit inside the Group, for when the question runs past the machines.
