China Steel Corporation [TWSE: 2002]
Engineering Steel for Higher-Value Manufacturing
Steel manufacturers increasingly compete on more than production volume as customers demand tighter specifications, dependable processing performance and materials suited to specialized applications. China Steel Corporation (TWSE: 2002) (CSC) has built its manufacturing model around producing steel products with controlled quality, diverse specifications and consistent processing characteristics. Its portfolio includes hot-rolled and cold-rolled coils, coated coils, plates, bars and wire rods for applications spanning automotive, construction, machinery and industrial manufacturing....Read more
Gold Mining
DOVE Equipment & Machinery Co., Ltd.
Engineering the Right Path to Maximum Mineral Recovery
Dr. Fillip Sharifi, CEO
A mine can hold valuable gold and still fail to deliver its value. The problem may lie in what happens after material reaches the surface. If the processing plant is not suited to the material, valuable mineral can be lost before it is recovered. That is the problem DOVE Equipment & Machinery has built its approach around solving. Customers often arrive seeking a machine or the lowest price without understanding what their deposit requires. DOVE, therefore, first educates them, establishes that there is no single solution for every deposit, then determines what the material demands. Rather than starting with a machine, it starts with the deposit, analyzes its characteristics and engineers a processing system around what needs to be recovered. “It’s not about how many tons soil you wash in alluvial, it’s about how many percent gold you recover,” says Dr. Fillip Sharifi, CEO. That changes how DOVE believes equipment should be evaluated. A lowerpriced plant can become more expensive if poor recovery leaves substantial deposit’s value behind. The relevant calculation is recoverable gold, not equipment cost. ...Read more
Underground Mining
For a mining company moving into underground operations, the challenge begins long before the first development heading is drilled. Success requires specialised expertise, experienced people, reliable equipment and proven systems that can manage safety, productivity and changing conditions. For Byrnecut, Australian underground contractor, the answer has been to build a repeatable underground mining system to help mine owners develop and operate mines safely, efficiently and consistently across regions. Executive Chairman Steve Coughlan describes the company’s approach as delivering mining expertise, equipment and operational discipline as a complete package rather than assembled project by project. The difference between Byrnecut and many contractors is not the ability to drill a development heading or operate underground equipment. The advantage comes from the ability to bring an established workforce, fleet, technology platform and operating framework into a mine from day one. “For a company starting an underground operation, they won’t have those skill sets in-house, so they will definitely go and seek that expertise from contracting groups like ours,” Coughlan explains. For mine owners, that decision is increasingly about managing risk. Developing an underground operation requires significant investment in people, equipment, maintenance capability and safety systems. Byrnecut’s model allows companies to access those capabilities without building an entire underground mining organisation internally. ...Read more

EDITORIAL
Engineering the Next Chapter of Metals And Mining
Metals and mining are evolving around a clear priority which is extracting greater value from materials while improving precision, reliability and capability. This edition of Metals and Mining Review APAC explores that shift through steel manufacturing, mineral recovery, underground mining and advanced manufacturing expertise.
China Steel Corporation (TWSE: 2002) is featured as the Top Steel Coils and Bars Manufacturer 2026. Characteristics of CSC include mass production along with quality control, product specialization, and research-oriented development. Products manufactured by CSC are coils, plates, bars, and wire rods used in automotive, construction, machinery, electronics, and industrial manufacturing.
The edition also highlights DOVE Equipment & Machinery Co., Ltd., awarded Top Alluvial Gold Mining Equipment Manufacturer in Asia 2026. Its recovery-focused approach begins with understanding the deposit rather than selecting equipment first. Ore analysis, application-specific engineering and specialized processing systems allow DOVE to address the characteristics of individual deposits.
Byrnecut, recognized as the Top Underground Contract Mining Solutions Provider in APAC 2026, shows another side of industry expertise. Byrnecut’s approach combines skilled people, advanced equipment, technology, and standardized systems for developing and operating underground mines.
This edition also includes insights from Greg Thompson, Global Product Manager for 3D Printing at Protolabs. He discusses how CNC machining and metal 3D printing can work together. Greg explains the strengths and weaknesses of each process to help readers make better design and manufacturing choices.
Together, these stories show an industry where expertise and practical engineering remain central to progress. Explore the edition to examine the technologies, capabilities and leadership perspectives shaping the next phase of metals and mining.
