Open Pit and Underground Design Services
At the core of every successful project is reliable data. We turn field mapping, core logging, and laboratory testing into practical, data-driven designs built for real world conditions. Our approach is scalable, matching the level of analysis to the specific risks and requirements of each project.
We apply a range of methods from proven empirical approaches through to 2D and 3D Finite Element and Limit Equilibrium modelling for more complex environments. The focus remains on appropriate, pragmatic, and cost-effective engineering outcomes that support both design and operational needs.

What We Offer
Study Support & Ground Control Planning
We support projects from Raisebore analysis through to Scoping, Pre-Feasibility, and Feasibility studies. We also develop site-specific engineering designs and Ground Control Management Plans focused on safety and asset performance.
Geotechnical Analysis & Numerical Modelling
We apply a range of analytical techniques including empirical methods, 2D and 3D Finite Element analysis, and Limit Equilibrium modelling. This supports the assessment of complex ground conditions and design requirements.
Data-Driven Geotechnical Design
We convert site data including mapping, logging, and testing into practical engineering designs. This ensures decisions are grounded in real conditions and aligned with project risk profiles.
WA Mining Expertise
Western Australia presents varied and complex geological conditions that require adaptable and data-driven geotechnical design approaches. Our work is grounded in local mining environments, supporting both open pit and underground operations across a range of commodities and project stages.
We understand the importance of aligning technical analysis with operational constraints, ensuring designs remain practical, constructible and appropriate for site-specific conditions. Our experience spans early-stage studies through to detailed design support.
Expertise in cut-and-fill planning and material reuse to reduce costs and environmental impact.
Integrated geotechnical and civil engineering solutions for reliable, constructible designs.
Site-specific, practical recommendations for efficient earthworks execution.
Collaborative approach keeping clients informed and projects on track.
