Sandvik has received a large order for battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), including trucks and loaders, from Canadian miner Eldorado Gold for its Lamaque gold mine in Val-d’Or, Québec.
The order, valued at around SEK 160 million (US$17.4 million), was booked in the fourth quarter of 2025. It follows a SEK 65 million ($7 million) BEV order from Eldorado booked in the third quarter.
“Sandvik BEVs have proven their capability underground at Lamaque, and this order confirms the strength of our battery-electric offering,” said Mats Eriksson, president of Mining at Sandvik. “We are proud to expand our partnership with Eldorado Gold and support their strategy to strengthen efficiency, safety, and sustainability in their mining operations.”
Deliveries are expected to begin mid-2026 and continue into 2027. With the new orders, the fleet of Sandvik BEVs at the Lamaque mine will grow from two to 12 units.
