Mining

We are an experienced Mining Contractor with a solid reputation that benefits our customers in the following ways:

SAFETY:  This topic is of such major importance that there is an entire section of the website dedicated to safety.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY:  VT has been using GPS (Trimble) for earthwork and trenching since 1999.  Experience with this technology has developed our strong foundation in site modeling, GPS Rovers and Electronic Machine Controls.  GPS provides grade controls at the actual point of location were the grading is occurring.  GPS provides a safer work area by removing grade checkers from working around moving equipment and is an efficient and accurate means for earth work and trenching.
