Heavy-Duty Stainless Tanks for Mining Sites

Mining tanks built by STA — Built by STA

Tanks for Harsh Site Conditions

On a remote site, follow-up support is hard to arrange, so a tank has to be right when it arrives. We design each tank for its job and for the safety of the people who operate it, and we work with consulting engineers in the mining sector.

Mining tanks treat wastewater, hold process liquids and store food-grade products. We have supplied tanks to mines in Western Queensland and around Australia.

Mining Tank Features

Heavy-Duty Stainless

Heavy-duty stainless steel throughout, for tanks that stand up to site conditions with little maintenance.

Built to Exact Specifications

We model every tank in 3D and build it to your drawings so it fits the first time.

Platforms and Access

Operator platforms are built onto the tank in our workshop, so your crew can work on it safely.

Wastewater to Food Grade

Tanks for wastewater treatment, process liquids and food-grade products on site.

Mining Tank Capabilities

Materials	304 and 316 stainless steel (including 316L) and high alloys
Capacity	100L to 250kL built in our workshop, depending on configuration; larger tanks, up to 1.9ML, fabricated in our workshop and assembled on site, on request
Welding	Orbital, TIG, MIG and flux-cored (FCAW)
Design	3D modelling and approval drawings before fabrication
Testing and inspection	Hydrostatic testing in our workshop, depending on the size of the tank, and dye penetrant testing in our workshop; radiography arranged through a NATA-accredited third party, and any other testing your specification calls for (for example borescope inspection, riboflavin coverage testing, surface finish (profilometer) checks and material verification) can be arranged through NATA-accredited third-party testers
Delivery	Every Australian state and territory

Delivery to Remote Sites

We deliver your tank to your site, anywhere in Australia, freighted from our Murarrie workshop by Russell Transport.

For remote mine sites we plan the freight with you before the tank leaves our workshop. Very large tanks are fabricated in our workshop and assembled on site, on request, case by case.
