Tamrock

75% Fully Assembled Tamrock 485-05 (MDS) Core, commissioned in 2010 but, never put into operation and located Cigar Lake Mine Site in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada

Our Identical Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) we have in use drove through a mixture of easy to medium geology in 4 tunnels (170 m each)….specifically clay-rock mixtures at the low end (5-10 MPa strength) and medium hard competent rock with no fractures at the higher end (60-80 MPa strength). The cutter wheel had both drag bits and cutter discs to deal with the varied ground conditions/strengths. (Note: hard rock mines can be >150MPa).

The rock type and strengths continually varied along the length of the tunnels and our TBM went through all above ground types with no problem at an average of 5m a day (likely a bit slower in hard rock, and faster in soft)

The TBM used both rotation (i.e.: 400kW) and thrust off the concrete rings to provide cutting power to the rock face.
