Description
The construction of Colorado Sands’ new plant reflects what Superior Construction Services does best: concrete construction in the surface mining industry. Construction was ground-up and consisted of three phases, spanning 18 months.
The scope of work included an array of essential elements for a surface mining facility, including structural foundations for approximately 3,500’ of conveyor lines, feed hoppers, a 432’ X 200’ storage building foundation, a four-bay truck loadout area, a chemical building, electrical houses, and other miscellaneous equipment. The scope also included cast-in-place work for a wet sand plant that housed thickener and freshwater tanks, wash screens, attrition mills, and dryers.
