ABOUT WMSWilson Mining Services (WMS) commenced operations in 1990 and is proud to
have always been 100% Australian owned and operated.
The administration, workshop and warehouses are located near Newcastle, NSW.
The company’s secondary office and warehouse are located in Mackay, QLD with

Company Directors have a wide range of qualifications and knowledge in all
matters relating to the Company’s operations and development. This includes a
strong background in the technical and general understanding of the Australian
coal mining industry together with those specialised skills required in the areas of
chemistry and commerce.
Initially the Company’s activities centred around general contracting work for
the underground coal mining industry. However, certain specialised areas were
identified as a focus for long term operations.
These include underground drilling, supply and installation of underground
ventilation control devices, the installation of secondary support systems
including polyurethane injection, fenoflex injection and cavity filling. The Micon
explosion-rated seal and Rocsil cavity fill are industry leading products.
WMS as a business is certified in AS/NZS ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management

CASE STUDIESREMOTE ROCSIL FOAM VENT PLUGS
Case Study 1 - A NSW client was looking for a product that:
1. Could be delivered approximately 200m below the surface via a borehole, and2. Could provide an airtight seal to allow for pressurisation of the chamber between the seals.
A series of workshop trials were carried out to determine the most effective way to seal off the roadways using ROCSIL ® FOAM plugs. A two directional application head was developed. These workshop trials were followed by 7 underground applications.
Two boreholes were installed 8 – 12m apart. The first hole was used to lower hoses and a purpose-built remote applicator head. A camera was lowered down the second borehole and was fitted with a light and rotating lens to allow real time footage of the seals construction.
Case Study 2 – A QLD client was looking for a product that could be rapidly deployed:
1. From the surface to seam via a single 340m borehole to create a series of vent plugs to isolate a heating event in the longwall panel, and2. On the surface with exclusion zones in place to remotely seal the mine entries during a mine fire event
Labour, equipment and materials were mobilised, risk assessments undertaken and safe work procedures developed to successfully install a series of ROCSIL ® FOAM plug seals to the satisfaction of the client. Remarkedly no camera was used for the borehole vent plugs and remote-controlled equipment was used for the mine entry seals. This work highlights WMS’s capability to quickly respond to emergency situations and deliver safe and effective world-class results.
