Practical water management support to the global mining sector
We provide operation-focused, practical support to improve mine water management. From contact-water reduction, dewatering and depressurisation, site-wide water balance, tailings pond management, water quality, treatment and compliant discharge - we can support at all stages of the mine cycle with immediate issues to long-term strategy.
Water & Chemical Balance Mass Modelling
Leaders in practical mine water and chemical mass balance modelling using GoldSim to optimise operational water management of flows, storage, water quality and treatment processes. Experience includes site-wide, tailings facilities, open pits, underground, waste rock dumps and leach facilities.
Groundwater Modelling
Comprehensive conceptual, analytical and numerical groundwater modelling to aid pit dewatering, slope depressurisation and mine planning - pre-feasibility (PFS), feasibility (FS) and environmental impact assessment (ESIA).
Mine Dewatering
Practical, operations-focused mine dewatering solutions to reduce operational risk and maximise production - with tailored strategies for pumping, reticulation, monitoring and maintenance.
Pit Slope Depressurisation
Pit slope depressurisation support to increase slope stability through sector-specific drainage plans - drains, wells, surface water management, monitoring and maintenance.
Geochemical and Mass Transport Modelling
Geochemical and water quality modelling to predict water quality evolution, assess risks such as acid rock drainage (ARD) and support proactive mitigation strategies based on laboratory testwork and thermodynamic simulation.
Planning Mine Closure
Mine closure planning integrating water management, environmental stewardship, and regulatory requirements to deliver practical outcomes, to reduce long term liabilities and ensure safe, compliant site transitions beyond active mining operations.
Three ways to engage with us…
Operational Management Challenges
We will support your short-term planning and operational needs through practical, site-specific guidance.
Medium & Long-term Planning
Whether you are looking at closure, water treatment options, dewatering a pit lake in advance of mining or evaluating alternative mine plans, let us support your options analysis and realistic target-setting.
Instrumentation & Monitoring
Guidance on instrumentation needs, monitoring plans and on-site support.
