The main infrastructure needed for a bitcoin running operation in a remote place would be:
* the mining rig itself. If there's a way to ship manufacturing product from the location, there must be a way to bring this in too. Pound for pound and liter by liter, this can't take more space or infrastructure to bring than aluminum or any other physical product I can think of.
* cooling. same as above.
* electricity. If you can manufacture aluminum, you have enough.
* small amount of on-site workers to perform critical repairs
Things you don't need:
* large custom-built machines.
* many trained/untrained workers to take care of the machines
* infrastructure that can consistently ship tons of material to and from a remote location all year round (mining rig upgrades consume much less mass/volume and can be batched to avoid shipping during rough climate seasons)
