In 2011, Caterpillar purchased Bucyrus International, Inc., a leading manufacturer of surface and underground mining equipment with over 125 years of experience, entrepreneurship, quality and exceptional customer service. Caterpillar is the world’s leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas engines, industrial gas turbines and diesel-electric locomotives. The company also is a leading services provider through Caterpillar Financial Services, Caterpillar Remanufacturing Services and Progress Rail Services. Wherever you go in the mining world, you’ll find Caterpillar. From underground coal mines in China to surface gold mines in Mali to the oil sands of Canada, our equipment and technology products are hard at work. And our people are right there, too—building and supporting products, training operators, helping our customers mine more profitably, conducting research and development, and working with schools, organizations and communities. Caterpillar serves the worldwide mining community through its Caterpillar Global Mining organization. Global Mining is the single point of contact for global mineral producers and the primary link to the Caterpillar extended mining enterprise. We provide mine-specific product, technology and service solutions that help our customers enhance safety, improve efficiency, increase productivity and reduce cost per ton
