Athabasca Minerals Inc. announced that AMI RockChain Inc. including its subsidiary TerraShift Engineering Ltd. recently secured the following strategic contracts as follows:
- A three-year agreement with a two-year renewal option for AMI RockChain to supply aggregates and related services to the Rural Municipalities of Alberta, their provincial membership of 69 rural municipalities, and their inter-provincial affiliates.
- TerraShift contracts valued over $600,000 to: (a) provide municipal services associated with environmental waste management for the Ministikwan Lake Cree Nation for the next 12 months, and (b) secure peat resources and regulatory approvals for a confidential industry client.
Robert Beekhuizen, AMI’s chief executive officer, stated, “We’re off to a good start in Q1 2021. Aside from our base aggregates division being active with Coffey Lake production, AMI RockChain and TerraShift are both experiencing a significant increase in year-over-year activity. AMI RockChain’s recent agreement with the RMA to supply aggregates and related services to their provincial membership and inter-provincial affiliates is very exciting. Our proprietary RockChain technologies and digital supply chain platform easily expand our customers’ purchasing-power which is desirable in today’s e-commerce world. Additionally, our operational excellence program gives the assurance that our market-optimized solutions are backed by quality-control and safety in logistics for every product delivery. We are not limited in our capabilities to deliver aggregates across Canada, and we are now exploring market entry into the United States as well. It is quite intriguing to hear several customers refer to us, in their own words, as an ‘amazon of aggregates.’
“It is also exciting to see how TerraShift’s proprietary regulatory-resource digital platform, TerraMaps and their streamlined approach to obtaining permit approvals is going to help a confidential client’s strategic growth and increase their holdings of high-quality peat resources,” Beekhuizen concluded. “Additionally, TerraShift’s responsiveness to the Ministikwan Lake Cree Nation with an efficient environmental waste management solution is an important hallmark in our agreement. We are very committed to the community’s quality of life, ensuring good value at all times, and delivering promptly on their needs.”
