Pit & Rig Earthworks

Pit & Rig Earthworks

From zero to operational.

We help mining projects get from a plan to a working site, and we supply the operators who run it. Here's the short version.

01 · WhoWho are you?

Earthworks is the mining start-up and operations division of Pit & Rig, based in Comox, British Columbia. It's run by a mine superintendent and a general foreman with 55 years on the ground between them.

15YRS

JP Remon

Mine superintendent and software developer. Mining and oil.

40YRS

Dave French

General foreman and contractor. Crews, contractors, getting it done.

02 · WhatWhat do you actually do?

Three things, on one project or across several.

Start it

Plan, mobilize, build the site, line up contractors, prove the first cycles, hand over.

Run it

Stay on after handover and operate: crews, equipment, the day-to-day.

Crew it

Hand-picked haul truck, excavator, shovel, dozer and grader operators.

03 · WhyWhy call you and not someone else?

One call, one accountable team. The plan, the people and the contractors run through us, so nothing falls between companies.

You talk to the people doing the work. No sales layer: the superintendent and the foreman pick up the phone.

Crews you can trust on day one. Every operator is hand-picked, with tickets and licence checked before they mobilize.

Records from the first shift. Hours, field tickets and safety records go into Pit & Rig's own software from day one.

We go where the work is. Western Canada today, with a worldwide network of mining contacts behind us.

04 · HowHow does it start?

  1. A conversationWhere the project is, where it stands, what needs to happen next.
  2. A scope you agree toStages, people, equipment and milestones, written down before anything moves.
  3. MobilizeThe right crew and equipment to site, in the right order.
  4. Handover, or we stayAn operation ready to work, or we keep running it.
