What we see in mining

Six risks that recur across every engagement

Each one appears in the register with an owner, a rating and a treatment plan.

Fatalities and serious injury

Fall of ground, machinery, transport and other major hazards.

Mining rights and licences

Rights, water use licences and conditions that lapse or are challenged.

Tailings and environment

Tailings failures, water and rehabilitation liabilities.

Community and labour

Social licence, stoppages and disputes that halt production.

Commodity price and cost

Price swings and rising costs that change mine economics.

Power and logistics

Electricity supply, rail and port capacity that limit output.

The frameworks your register has to answer to

We map each obligation to a risk, a control and an owner, so the register and the compliance universe are one document rather than two.

  • NEMAEnvironmental authorisations and duty of care.
  • National Water ActWater use licences and conditions.

How we work with mining clients

Built around the operation

Timed around production

Sessions are planned around shifts, shutdowns and board meetings.

Site and corporate risk in one register

Safety sits alongside finance, licences and community, rated on the same scale, so the board sees one picture.

Evidence on hand

Controls and actions are recorded in a secure workspace your team keeps updating, so an inspection or audit request is answered from live records.
