Mine Closure
With the global mining sector pivoting to recognise and support the importance of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles, mine closure and remediation has become one of the most important phases of the mining lifecycle.
Overview
Our mine closure experts provide strategic planning services to develop a closure vision, engage with stakeholders, and then develop and implement a closure strategy that is cost-beneficial while reducing negative legacy risk.
The extent to which a mining company is able to manage regulators, community and employee expectations, as well as final closure outcomes, has a major impact on investor, community and regulator sentiment from the outset.
