Details 023D block modelling integrating chemistry, topography and structure.
Details 03Bench-by-bench reserve calculations and volume analysis.
Details 04Core drilling grid design with continuous sampling and casing.
Details 05Blast design, hole patterns, charging, VOD and vibration monitoring.
Details 06End-to-end extraction, crushing, screening and logistics.
Details 07Mine rehabilitation studies and land restoration plans.
Details 08Advisory across planning, processing and equipment selection.
DetailsComprehensive understanding of the geological features within the deposit area — producing precise information on quality, quantity, and the long-term suitability of the resource for industrial use.
Detailed characterisation of stratigraphy, lithology and structural geology.
Precise information on the deposit's quality and quantity for confident investment decisions.
A steady and consistent flow of raw materials for downstream industrial operations.
Maximised utilisation with respect to lifetime, cost and waste reduction.
Mining plans rigorously matched to environmental assessment and sustainability commitments.
The deposit body is modelled in three-dimensional space using topographic survey data, packed into a series of blocks with precise dimensions — aligned to expected bench heights and annual material consumption during operations.
The 3D block model is used to calculate reserves with high precision — bench-by-bench, above or below specific levels, or for any defined part of the deposit body. Cut-and-fill activity modelling supports accurate planning of equipment, budget and timeframes.
Selective reporting by bench, elevation or zone.
Pre- and post-activity terrain models for material volume calculations.
Accurate estimates for equipment requirements, budget allocation and project timeframes.
Core drilling grids designed with spacing typically between 100 and 400 metres. Infill drilling is strategically deployed where initial results reveal quality fluctuation. Continuous sampling along the complete borehole, with air or freshwater circulation to flush cuttings and preserve sample integrity.
Strict adherence to high safety rules and regulations. Specialist consultancy and on-the-ground execution — supported by industry-leading instrumentation from MDL and MREL.
