St. Ann based Lydford Mining has invested US$2 million in new equipment to expand mining activities.
The company says it acquired and installed a new surface miner at its New Relief Mine Site in Golden Grove, St. Ann.
Lydford says the technology should help increase its limestone exports from 600,000 tonnes per annum to 1.5 million tonnes by 2025.
Lydford is currently a major player in limestone mining locally, exporting large shipments of construction, pharmaceutical and food grade limestone to countries throughout the western hemisphere.
In 2023, Lydford tripled its exports to US$10 million worth of product.
The new machine is also expected to decrease operational costs.
