Forge Resources Corp (FRGGF) has announced extensive infrastructure improvements at its La Estrella Coal Project. These developments are set to transform the project's operational dynamics through the introduction of electrical enhancements aimed at facilitating 24-hour operations. The company is installing electrical poles and high-performance lighting, consisting of two 200W solar floodlights and two 200W non-solar floodlights, alongside five strategically placed security cameras to bolster site monitoring and safety.
To support these enhancements, Forge has initiated a comprehensive road maintenance project. In collaboration with the municipalities of Betulia and Zapatoca, Forge is restoring 10 kilometers of shared roadways. This initiative includes widening access points, reinforcing structural integrity, and upgrading road surfaces to accommodate increased traffic flow and the transport of heavy equipment.
The infrastructure upgrades are part of Forge's strategy to accelerate decline development and enhance productivity and operational efficiency at the La Estrella site. With the support of local municipalities, the improvements foster better connectivity and ensure the safety and sustainability of their operations.
According to PJ Murphy, CEO of Forge Resources, these upgrades represent a significant milestone for the company. "By expanding our capabilities, we are accelerating the development of the decline, improving efficiency, and reinforcing our commitment to safety and sustainability," Murphy stated. The company remains focused on executing its development plans with transparency and collaboration, engaging actively with the local communities to ensure mutual benefits.
