Field operations
From geophysics to refining
Exploration
Geophysics and core drilling
Survey programs map subsurface structure before drilling begins. Core samples are logged, split, and dispatched to the laboratory for grade verification.
Extraction
Open-pit extraction
Benches are developed in planned sequences, with haul routes and ore stockpiles managed against the mine plan. Excavation follows approved grade-control boundaries.
Processing
Mechanical processing and refining
Crushing, grinding, and gravity circuits reduce ore to concentrate for refining. Plant throughput and recovery are logged shift by shift.
Technical services
Services across the development chain
Specialist support is coordinated across exploration, laboratory work, processing, and export.
Mineral exploration contracting
Geophysical surveys, drilling programs, and field sampling are scoped and supervised against agreed technical specifications.
Assay laboratory coordination
Samples are tracked from core shed to laboratory, with assay verification and bulk sampling arranged to documented procedures.
Processing and trading logistics
Concentrate handling, documentation, and export logistics are managed so each consignment moves with a clear chain of custody.
Development lifecycle
From greenfield to distribution
01
Greenfield exploration
Regional surveys and targeted geophysics identify prospective ground for systematic evaluation.
02
Drilling and evaluation
Core drilling and assay verification establish the grade and extent of the mineral resource.
03
Extraction and processing
Mine planning, open-pit extraction, and mechanical processing convert ore into saleable concentrate.
04
Commercial distribution
Concentrate is documented, assayed for export, and shipped through managed logistics to buyers.
