Mining & Excavation
Deposit Evaluation
Determining the ideal mining or excavation method begins with understanding your deposit. How compacted is it? What is the clay content? What type of clay? How deep is your material? Questions like these help guide our options. Invariably, there is more than one way to remove the material, that is where our real value lies. We can help with financial models of the options and assist with the ever challenging up front capital versus long term operating cost evaluation.
Extraction Options
Every deposit is different. Every operation is different. Every operator is different. Our experience with nearly every mining and extraction method allows us to pair methods with variables specific to your operation. Even if you have a active mine site, we can help modify the current methods to maximize the assets you have while exploring other options.
Mine Plan
Once we understand the deposit and the means of removal, establishing a plan for the next month, year, and decade ensures efficient material handling, proper capital planning, and consistent material outputs.
Extraction Performance
Measuring and monitor performance versus expectation is critical to long term success. The extraction metrics can sometimes be difficult to measure independent of the process. It is important to find a way to separate the extraction as it can be the largest influence in cost and productivity!
