Toronto contractor Aecon Group completed the sale late last month of its contract mining business as it focuses on its strengthening infrastructure business months after the Canadian government quashed the sale of Aecon to a Chinese government-owned firm.
Aecon announced the sale of the unit, which does environmental reclamation and overburden removal mostly in Alberta’s oil sands region, to North American Construction Group LLC (NACG), Acheston, Alberta, for about $150 million.
