BLG Machinery · The Fleet
Whatever your site needs moving.
Seven DEVELON DA45 dump trucks. Hydraulic excavators from 30 to 100 tonnes. Loaders, crushing and full processing plant. The register below sets out what we run, what class it is, and where it is working today.
Enquire ↗The machine is the margin.
You are not really buying a machine. You are buying the hours it runs and the tonnes it moves. Those come from what happens off the bench: what gets serviced tonight, what moves to which face in the morning, who is in the seat. We keep that whole chain in one place, so there is no rate card in between and no one to point at but us.
The machines are 2025-model DEVELON, with a direct Doosan line for parts and technical support. For your site that means fewer surprises, shorter waits when something does let go, and the room to scale up if the job grows.
Fleet register
Deployed across the Group's projects.
Articulated dump trucks, hydraulic excavators, front-end loaders, Metso crushers and processing plants make up the Group's machinery on the ground across chrome and copper operations, with the Doosan partnership backing forward acquisitions.

Beyond the register
Not on this list? We’ll find it.
The register above is what we run today. It is not the limit of what we can put on your site. If the job calls for a machine we don’t own, we source it.
That reach is not confined to the DEVELON and Doosan range. We buy, hire in and arrange machines from right across the mining and earthmoving market in South Africa: dozers, graders, ADTs, drill rigs, screens, crushers, whatever the spec calls for. We will find it, price it honestly, and put it on site with a crew and a maintenance plan behind it.
So the question worth bringing us is not “what do you have?” It is “what does the job need?”
Matched to the job, not to a catalogue.
Articulated Dump Trucks
Seven 40-tonne DEVELON DA45s. Articulated because the ground we work is rarely as good as a rigid truck needs it to be.
Hydraulic Excavators
From 30 to 100 tonnes, so the shovel is sized to the face and the truck, not the other way round.
Front End Loaders
A 420-class FEL and a wheel loader on processing duty: stockpile management, rehandle and plant feed.
Crushing & Processing
Metso jaw and cone crushers, a three-stage crushing plant and a leach SX/EW processing plant, so material can be sized and processed on site.
Partners
Backed by the manufacturers.
Direct relationships rather than a dealer at arm's length. That is what turns a parts order into an afternoon instead of a fortnight, and it is what underwrites the next tranche of machines as the Group grows.
Questions about the fleet.
Can you supply a machine that isn’t on this register?
Yes, and it happens often. Our buying and hire-in reach covers the mining and earthmoving market across South Africa, well past the DEVELON and Doosan range. Tell us the spec and the window, and we will find the machine, price it honestly and put it on site with maintenance behind it.
What size excavators do you run?
Hydraulic excavators from 30 to 100 tonnes, so the shovel is always sized to the face and the truck, not the other way round. Outside that band, we source to the spec.
Can the fleet scale for a bigger job?
Yes. The direct Doosan relationship turns a parts order into an afternoon and an acquisition into weeks, and anything outside that range we source on the open market. The fleet grows with the work instead of capping it.
How current is the equipment?
The core fleet is 2025-model DEVELON, with a Doosan Equipment partnership underwriting the next tranche of machines as the Group's pipeline grows.
Is the fleet owned or leased?
Owned. Which matters to you for one reason: there is no third-party rate card in the middle, so when a machine needs work it comes out of our cost and our schedule instead of your change order.
