Let trusted mining professionals guide your project
We are experienced mining engineers, geotechnical engineers and geologists.
Mining Engineering
Our practical mine site experience allows us to draw from various disciplines such as geotechnical engineering, geology, and ventilation to deliver a robust mine design. As part of our mining engineering capability, we undertake the following:
- Mine Design
- Mine Scheduling
- Mine Planning
- Equipment Selection
- Mining Method Selection
Geotechnical Engineering
When it comes to geotechnical engineering and design we adopt a risk-based approach. We run a sensitivity analysis, or a ‘what if' analysis on design input parameters, and based on this, determine the minimum design requirement to maintain stability. Our design philosophy combines empirical, numerical, analytical, and operational benchmarking. Our team has proven operational (mine site), consulting and research experience. As part of our geotechnical engineering capability, we undertake the following:
- Advanced Numerical Modelling
- Ground Support Design
- Pillar Design
- Slope Stability Analysis
- Geotechnical Monitoring Program Design
- Third Party Design Reviews
- Registered Engineer Reviews (RPEQ)
- Geotechnical Systems & Framework Audits
- Develop Underground Strata Frameworks
- Develop Open Cut Strata Frameworks
- Deep High Stress Design (Stress Relief Methods)
- Rock Mechanics Engineering
- Mine Subsidence Modelling
- Research and Development
Mining Project Evaluation
Whether you are planning to develop a greenfield project, investing in or acquiring an existing mine asset, technical, safety and financial risks are involved. We pride ourselves in being able to help clients identify and navigate these mining risks. Our team members have proven experience serving as subject matter experts in due diligence exercises and studies. As part of our mining project evaluation capability, we undertake the following:
- Concept Studies
- Prefeasibility Studies
- Feasibility Studies
- Due Diligence
- Financial Modelling
- Reserve Estimates
- Resource Estimates
- Mine Design Optimisation
Geology
From exploration data we estimate the size, quality, and spatial distribution of the mineral deposit to better inform the mine design and planning process. Applying geostatistical methods such as Kriging, Inverse Distance and Triangulation we build 3D models of the mineral deposit. As part of our geology capability, we undertake the following:
- Geostatistics & Block Modelling
- Resource Estimates
- Geophysical Log Analysis
