Two decades. One standard.
Terranova Extraction was built on a simple idea — that the best mining companies are quiet, careful, and obsessed with doing the work properly.
Jack Antoine
Jack Antoine has spent his life in Australian mining. At 75, with more than half a century in the industry, he has watched the sector evolve from hand-tools to autonomous fleets — and through every change, kept the same principles at the centre of his work.
He founded Terranova Extraction over twenty years ago with a small crew and a clear brief: deliver mining work the right way, look after the team, and stand behind every job. Today the company runs sites across Queensland and Western Australia, but the standard hasn't shifted.
Jack still reviews every major contract personally and visits sites monthly. That involvement is why operators keep coming back.
