Feasibility studies to FEED
Turning concepts into actionable project blueprints
When mining and infrastructure opportunities first emerge, decisions are often made long before the project is technically proven, economically defendable, or aligned with investor expectations. TacminMadini’s Feasibility Studies to FEED service provides a structured, evidence-driven pathway from early concept to execution readiness, ensuring every step is supported by compliant resource declarations, rigorous feasibility assessment, and fully developed front-end engineering design. This integrated approach strengthens credibility, clarifies risk, and builds the technical and financial foundation required to secure capital, guide governance, and transition confidently into procurement and delivery.
OUR FOCUS AREAS
Establishing confidence before capital is committed
Why it matters | Investment decisions lose credibility when they are based on assumptions rather than verified data. Incomplete, non-compliant or outdated geological information introduces uncertainty, delays funding and weakens stakeholder confidence at critical decision points. |
Our focus | We prepare internationally compliant resource and reserve declarations aligned with JORC, NI 43-101 and SAMREC standards. Geological interpretation, engineering inputs and modifying factors are validated rigorously to ensure estimates are credible, transparent and defensible across regulators, financiers and strategic partners. |
Outcome | Trusted, compliant resource and reserve statements that strengthen financial modelling, support due diligence and give decision-makers the confidence to advance projects on a solid, investable foundation. |
Where potential is validated and uncertainty reduced before development.
Why it matters | Projects often advance on optimistic assumptions that have not been rigorously tested. Inadequate feasibility work can mask technical constraints, understate risk and misalign expectations with investors and lenders, leading to costly revisions or stalled development later. |
Our focus | We deliver scoping, pre-feasibility and definitive feasibility studies that establish clear technical, economic and regulatory foundations. Each study integrates geology, mining, infrastructure, processing, costs, schedules and risk to reflect how the project will actually be developed and operated. Assumptions are tested against execution reality and investor requirements. |
Outcome | Robust, decision-ready feasibility studies that identify risks early, strengthen investment confidence and give stakeholders the clarity needed to advance projects with confidence and discipline. |
Where feasibility outcomes are converted into execution-ready plans.
Why it matters | Projects often progress toward procurement or construction with engineering and cost frameworks that are still too conceptual. Insufficient definition at this stage exposes owners to scope growth, budget escalation and schedule instability once delivery begins. |
Our focus | We translate feasibility outcomes into integrated, multidisciplinary FEED packages covering engineering, cost, procurement and scheduling. Transparent estimating, risk-based cost planning and execution sequencing are applied to de-risk mobilisation and align all disciplines to a common delivery logic. |
Outcome | Accurate, defensible budgets and fully aligned execution plans that allow projects to enter delivery with clarity, control and confidence. |
