Mining and quarrying
We've been providing expert advice to the UK mining industry for over 170 years. In recent decades our mining services have expanded globally to cover all aspects of mineral resource exploration and extraction.
The industry has seen radical changes in mining and extractive technologies, best working practices and workforce welfare - together with an ever-increasing emphasis on corporate and social responsibility, planning policy and environmental protection legislation.
Building on our unrivalled experience in mining and quarrying, we provide professional guidance to many different organisations. Projects range from exploration and resource assessment of mineral reserves in central Asia, to social impact studies on the most vulnerable communities in central Africa.
