Journeyperson Heavy Duty Mechanic

Overview Thyssen Mining’s history in North America began in the 1960s when the Thyssen business in Germany exported its knowledge of shaft sinking and ground freezing to Canada to service the potash industry in Saskatchewan. In the mid-1990s, TMCC saw opportunities in the western United States, particularly in the gold sector and Nevada. The U.S. operation was conducted as a branch operation of TMCC. Early in the second decade of the 2000s, the future of the U.S. market looked promising with work in Nevada, Alaska, New Mexico, and other states. Thyssen Mining Inc. ("TMI") was established as a subsidiary of TMCC. Following its inception, TMI completed successful shaft sinking, decline, development, and cavern projects. TMI’s operations continue to contribute significantly to the Thyssen Mining business, with ongoing high-profile projects in Nevada and South Dakota. Where TEAMWORK, VISION AND VALUE Come Together!!
