Rizhao Blazers has successfully delivered 20 units of heavy-duty vehicles to support the large-scale construction and ore transportation of the Gara Djebilet Iron Ore Project in Algeria, one of the largest mining projects in North Africa.
Project Introduction

Gara Djebilet Iron Ore Mine is the largest iron ore project in North Africa with 3.5 billion tons of reserves. It is developed by Sinosteel and CRCC as a key Belt and Road Initiative project.
Located in the Sahara Desert, the mine faces high temperatures, sandstorms, and tough road conditions. A 950km heavy-haul railway has been built to support ore transportation, with an annual capacity of 50 million tons.
Phase I of the mine produces 4 million tons of iron ore concentrate per year, and will reach 12 million tons in the future. The project will form a complete industrial chain including mining, beneficiation, railway transport and port logistics.
Vehicle Delivery for Mining Operations
To meet the high demand for mining transport and construction, Rizhao Blazers cooperated with the project subcontractor and provided a full set of heavy-duty vehicles:
- 10 units Sinotruk Howo 6×4 dump trucks
- 5 units Sinotruk Howo 6×4 tractor trucks
- 5 units dump semi-trailers
All vehicles have been produced, inspected, shipped and delivered on site, providing reliable support for project construction and iron ore transportation.
Advantages for Desert Mining Operations
Rizhao Blazers’ vehicles are specially designed for harsh desert mining environments, with strong performance in load capacity, reliability and durability.
1. High Load Capacity for Ore Transport
The vehicles use high-strength wear-resistant steel and heavy-duty axles, with strong load capacity for bulk iron ore transportation. They are ideal for continuous heavy-duty work in mining areas.
2. Desert-Proof Design
Equipped with dust-proof filters, heat dissipation systems and anti-corrosion treatment, the vehicles can work stably in 50°C high temperature and sandstorm environments, ensuring long service life.
3. Stable and Easy Maintenance
With modular structure and reliable parts, our vehicles have low failure rate and convenient maintenance, reducing downtime and operation cost for remote mining areas.
4. Safe and Comfortable Cab
ABS, brake assist and monitoring systems ensure driving safety. The sealed heat-insulated cab with air conditioning and comfortable seats helps reduce driver fatigue during long working hours.
