Thiess Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman Michael Wright said: "Since 2017, Thiess has provided expert planning and optimum mine sequencing to deliver exceptional outcomes for our client. This contract extension builds on our strong five-year relationship with MACH Energy at Mount Pleasant. We're pleased to continue to drive long-term social, environmental and economic value for the Upper Hunter region."

We also look forward to continuing our strong relationship with the Muswellbrook community to ensure we deliver mutually beneficial outcomes."
