> Feasibility & pre-FID assurance

When mining and infrastructure opportunities first emerge, decisions are often taken before projects are technically proven, economically defensible or aligned with investor expectations. TacminMadini’s Feasibility and Pre-Financial Investment Decision Assurance applies independent governance assurance from early concept through to decision readiness, ensuring resource declarations, feasibility positions and front-end engineering scope remain credible, aligned and defensible prior to capital commitment.

Why it matters	Investment decisions lose credibility when 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 Incomplete, non-compliant or outdated geological information introduces uncertainty, delays funding and weakens stakeholder confidence at critical decision points.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	Governance assurance is applied to confirm resource and reserve declarations align with JORC, NI 43-101 and SAMREC standards. Geological interpretation, engineering inputs and modifying factors are assessed to ensure estimates remain credible, transparent and defensible for regulators, financiers and stakeholders.
Outcome	Compliant, defensible resource and reserve positions that strengthen financial modelling, support due diligence and provide confidence for capital commitment.

Why it matters	Projects often advance on assumptions that are not fully tested. Inadequate feasibility work masks technical constraints, understates risk and misaligns expectations with investors and lenders, leading to revision, delay or loss of confidence.
Our focus	Governance assurance is applied across scoping, pre-feasibility and definitive feasibility stages to verify assumptions, methodologies and conclusions remain coherent, transparent and aligned with expected operating conditions. Outputs are assessed against delivery realities and investor expectations.
Outcome	Defensible feasibility positions that surface risk early, strengthen investment confidence and support disciplined progression toward commitment.

Why it matters	Projects often progress toward procurement or construction with engineering and cost frameworks that remain insufficiently defined. This exposes owners to scope growth, cost escalation and schedule instability once delivery begins.
Our focus	Governance assurance is applied to confirm alignment between feasibility outcomes and FEED definition across engineering, cost, procurement and schedule assumptions. Estimating logic, risk allowances and sequencing are assessed to ensure readiness before commitments are made.
Outcome	Aligned, defensible definitions and budgets that enable controlled transition into delivery with clarity and accountability.
