Sectors we know well  

Apex is not a generalist industrial investor. We specialise in mining services and the mine-related infrastructure and engineering platforms that support it.

Our operating companies sit across the mining value chain — from feasibility and project delivery through to operations, maintenance, equipment, spares, and field services.

The majority of our portfolio serves the mining industry directly. Where we operate beyond mining, it is in closely aligned, high-consequence industrial environments — including power, water, and materials handling — where our engineering, reliability, and safety expertise is equally critical.

In parallel, we also operate in heavy-duty  industrial systems outside mining, including specialist engineering and plant services for national utilities and industrial operators, where reliability, safety, and technical execution are mission-critical.

Engineering, Project Delivery and Operations Management

This is the backbone of Apex.

We invest in businesses that design, build, and operate mining projects and processing plants, including:

  • Studies, testwork, and design criteria development
  • Engineering, project delivery, and EPCM
  • Minerals processing and plant operations
  • Mine operations & maintenance services
  • Technical field services and shutdown support

Mining Equipment, Distribution and Aftermarket

We back essential distribution and aftermarket platforms that keep mines running:

  • Earthmoving, mining and construction equipment
  • Pumps, fluid handling, and process equipment
  • Lifting, rigging, and safety systems
  • Spares, rentals, field service, and maintenance

Power, Water and Infrastructure

We also own specialist engineering and services businesses that deliver:

  • Electrical and power infrastructure for mining and industrial plants
  • Energy, boiler, and process support services for heavy-duty operating environments
  • Pneumatic conveying, materials handling, and ash systems
  • Water treatment, pumping, and reticulation
  • Structural, mechanical, platework, and piping fabrication and construction for greenfield and brownfield industrial projects
