Exploration
Build project value by integrating exploration with processing and economics
Clean Mines' people have deep experience and understanding of project geology, metallurgy, processing and project economics extending from pegging a new exploration licence through to an operating mine.
​
We have managed and undertaken numerous greenfield and brown field exploration programs in Australia and overseas.
​
We break down silos because we understand technical people:
-
exploration geologists
-
mine geologists
-
geophysicists
-
metallurgists
-
finance executives
-
brokers
-
smelters
-
refineries
-
mining engineers
-
process engineers
-
plant operators and managers
-
regulators
-
economists
-
logistics specialists
​
This allows us to review and integrate the entire development process when evaluating exploration projects at any stage.
Key questions we can assist with include:
-
Is this exploration discovery able to be commercialised
-
What are the processing routes
-
What are timelines for reaching production
-
What capital cost would apply to this project
-
How much more ore do we need to find
-
What grade of ore do we need
-
How does the depth to the ore affect project economics
-
What sort of mining method would be relevant
-
How would we deal with the waste from a mining operation
-
How can we finance the project
-
Do we need an offtake agreement​
