Engineers & constructors for mines & infrastructure
Besides those pre-feasibility studies, which were previously not feasible until we re-engineered the mining designs and costs, on average our expertise has considerably improved the capital and operating costs on every pre-feasibility study review carried out to date. In our experience, the total mining costs can be improved significantly using First Principle Resource-based Estimating and optimised by resource analysis.
In an attempt to keep capital to a minimum, contract mining is the most obvious choice for start-up open-pit mining companies because of the lack of alternatives. Moreover, during feasibility studies, mining prices are generally based on one or maybe a couple of informal quotations, which more often than not, will be on the higher end due to the project stage and lack of final detail.
Given our balanced experience in both contractor and owner-operator mining, we believe that the well-structured deals offered by most OEMs are grossly under-utilised. Consequently, numerous open-pit mining operations that are owner-operator mining viable end up mined by contractors.
With geopolitical uncertainty and high inflation taking their toll on the global economy, now more than before it is essential to thoroughly investigate all mining avenues during feasibility. For this reason, we find an increase in mining companies with projects in feasibility, FEED or procurement stages, capturing the variety of alternative options offered by TacminMadini Australia.
For more than two decades our partners have cut their teeth in dealing with logistic challenges and experiences gained as a multinational company since the early 90s have given extensive exposure to working with locals in all facets of mining. TacminMadini Australia's primary focus is on projects in emerging countries. We pride ourselves in our business model, which promotes the building of world-class mining teams with locals from emerging countries.
