We have hands-on experience with all types of ore bodies and mineralogy. Our work covers the entire iron-ore value chain, from mining through to crushing, grinding, and beneficiation by gravity, magnetic, or heavy media separation. Next comes flotation and filtering, followed by downstream processing, such as pelletizing and sintering.
Our expertise extends to conveying, stockpiling and stacking; loading and unloading; shiploading; and sampling systems. Add in our advanced knowledge of iron-ore processing, ore behavior, and modeling design tools, and our clients get the most efficient and value-engineered bulk-materials handling solutions.
Transporting iron-ore slurries and tailings is the work of pipelines—in a wide range of diameters, often hundreds of kilometres long. We have proven expertise in designing, developing, and building slurry, tailings, and water transport solutions, even in places where the distance between the source and destination is vast.
Our full range of services extends to giving expert advice about developing and reviewing investment strategies. Using up-to-date industry benchmarks, we partner with investment banks, commercial banks, equity funds, bondholders, attorneys, and operating companies to evaluate mergers and acquisitions and other potentially profitable opportunities. Together, we thoroughly assess the full spectrum of financial, operational, technological, environmental, market, and commercial due-diligence issues.
We combine simulation and dynamic modeling of complex processes and operations with expertise in infrastructure systems and projects. Translating business objectives into design and operating requirements is critical to maximizing value across the iron-ore production system. So is understanding the drivers that impact capacity, cost, and value across the entire logistics chain. We do it all.
Our value-focused teams work side-by-side with our clients to deliver concrete improvements in operational readiness, asset management, maintenance support, operational performance, and sustaining projects’ engineering and shutdown services.
