The agreement signed between the mining giant owned by Business Mogul, Ibrahim Mahama and Caterpillar is significant in changing the face of mining in Ghana and the Sub Sahara Africa.
E&P is a wholly Indigenous Ghanaian-owned mining and construction contracting company headquartered in Accra, Ghana.
Since its inception in 1997, E&P has successfully completed world-class projects including road construction, mining projects, tailings dam construction, landfill site construction, leach pads construction, land reclamation amongst others.
E&P has the capacity, experience and expertise to deliver on major hard rock mining projects. E&P has executed mining projects both in Ghana and in Liberia.
Over the past 25 years, E&P has gained considerable experience in hard rock mining. E&P is currently engaged in hard rock contract mining for Gold Fields Ghana Limited’s world-class mine in Tarkwa, and Abosso Goldfields Limited in Damang.
Between January 2010 and May 2014, E&P also undertook hard rock mining for Golden Star (Wassa) Limited.
Most recently Abosso Goldfields Limited requested E&P to take over the Damang Complex Pit as the main mining contractor.
The latest project for E&P is the Cardinal Namdini Mines in Bolgatanga.
