Mining

From pre-stripping and greenfield projects to site rehabilitation, we provide all-encompassing mining solutions, ensuring the success and sustainability of your ventures.

Planning Phase Consultation

From pre-stripping and greenfield projects to site rehabilitation, during the planning phase we engage in thorough consultation to ensure alignment with project goals and community needs. We collaborate closely with stakeholders, including Indigenous groups, local authorities, and community members, to gather insights and perspectives. This inclusive approach enables us to develop comprehensive plans that prioritise sustainability, cultural sensitivity, and community engagement, laying the foundation for successful project implementation.

Clearing & Grubbing

At Wilgee Civil, our team excels in comprehensive clearing and grubbing operations. We meticulously prepare sites by removing vegetation and debris, ensuring optimal conditions for subsequent mining activities. Our commitment to precision and efficiency guarantees the smooth execution of projects, setting the stage for success in every endeavour.

Topsoil Removal

We meticulously extract topsoil layers, ensuring a clean and effective foundation for mining operations while preserving soil quality. This approach facilitates the reuse of topsoil to restore the land’s fertility and support vegetation after mining activities have concluded, ensuring sustainable land management practices.

Drill & Blast Services

With expertise in air drilling, horizontal drilling, reverse circulation, rotary drilling, and diamond core drilling, our capabilities encompass various explosives and a range of methods, ensuring precise and controlled fragmentation of rock and ore formations. Our careful planning and execution optimise efficiency while prioritising safety and environmental sustainability in all mining operations.

ROM & Waste Dump

We specialise in the establishment and management of Run-of-Mine (ROM) facilities and waste dumps. Our comprehensive services ensure efficient handling and disposal of materials, facilitating smooth site operations while maintaining compliance with environmental regulations and sustainability standards.

Landscaping & Rehabilitation

Critical aspects of responsible mining practices include our commitment to land rehabilitation. Upon completion of mining activities, we assume responsibility for restoring the ecosystem and mitigating environmental impacts, with a particular focus on engaging Indigenous communities. Through comprehensive rehabilitation efforts, we aim to restore biodiversity, promote ecosystem health, and ensure the sustainable use of land for future generations, respecting Indigenous knowledge and perspectives.

Mine Drainage & Installation

Our expertise encompasses mine drainage and installation services. We specialise in designing and implementing efficient drainage systems to manage water within mining operations. From planning to installation, we ensure effective water management, compliance with regulations, and minimal environmental impact.

Greenfield

Our mining capabilities extend to greenfield development projects. We specialise in the exploration, planning, and establishment of new mining operations on undeveloped sites. With meticulous attention to environmental regulations and sustainability practices, we ensure the responsible development of greenfield sites for future mining activities.

Brownfield Revitalisation

Whether you’re considering expanding or reactivating a mining site, our expertise in brownfield revitalisation is at your service. We are expert in rejuvenating and repurposing previously mined areas, maximising resource utilisation while minimising environmental impact. Through meticulous planning and execution, we ensure sustainable development and enhance the value of brownfield sites for future use.

Crusher Feed

Our expertise ensures the efficient and consistent supply of materials to crushers, optimising production processes and supporting the overall efficiency of mining operations. Serving as a cornerstone in operations requiring meticulous handling, our experts reduce the size of extracted material to prepare it for downstream activities such as milling and mineral separation.

Mining Cutbacks

Our expertise in mining cutback services ensures precise and strategic extraction of material, optimising resource utilisation and supporting efficient mining operations. We employ advanced techniques and equipment to execute cutbacks safely and effectively, meeting project requirements with precision.

Prestrip Mining

Leveraging our expertise, we efficiently remove overburden to uncover valuable mineral deposits, optimising resource extraction and supporting the overall efficiency of mining operations. Our advanced techniques and equipment ensure safe and effective prestrip mining, meeting project requirements with precision.

Design Capability

In our mining operations, we pride ourselves on our design capability, integrating Indigenous consultation into our planning process. We develop innovative and efficient mining plans tailored to project requirements and site conditions, while also incorporating Indigenous perspectives and knowledge. Our designs prioritise safety, sustainability, and cultural sensitivity, ensuring successful and inclusive mining operations from inception to completion.

Frequently Asked Questions

On what type of blast patterns can you operate?

We are able to operate on different blast patterns—square grid, rectangular grid, and staggered patterns.

What are the different steps of a mine site rehabilitation?

When processing a mine site rehabilitation, we start by assessing the site conditions to identify the different works we will have to undertake. Then, we take measure of the erosion level to prevent soil degradation and promote the growth of the native vegetation we reintroduce on the land.

How long does a greenfield development take?

The duration of greenfield development depends on numerous factors. Aware of the time constraints you may face, we are also conscious of the prerogative to follow to ensure the success of your project. Starting with a thorough assessment and exploration of the land, we then proceed to the development of your mine site ensuring it meets every legal, environmental and safety requirement needed to guarantee the success of your corporate endeavour.
