10X PERFORMANCE DIAGNOSTICs™

A comprehensive, independent and confidential assessment of all aspects of your mining operation.

While mining techniques and what good looks like change over the years, mines develop blind-spots, and have unseen value in cost reductions and performance improvements that are just waiting to be unlocked.

10x Performance Diagnostics™ is an independent benchmarking service focused on mine improvement. It combines data and expertise to let you know where you’re performing well, where your blind spots are, and more importantly, how to improve — with confidence.

Our assessment based on comparative benchmarking, detailed analytics, and best practice scorecards, enables you to know how your operation compares to others in the industry. Our insight-driven report lets you see how you stack-up against seven critical performance dimensions and where your next move should be.

Uses SmartData™, the world’s largest and most comprehensive, site-level validated data set that’s continuously updated.

What our clients say about us

Rosh Pinah Zinc Corporation (Pty) Ltd

"AMC Consultants helped us de-risk our Rosh Pinah asset and identified a twofold potential increase in NPV. Their expert team helped us to evaluate all the practical opportunities and select our preferred strategic position with confidence. The work completed has confirmed the potential to increase ore production from approximately 0.7 Mt to 1.3 Mt per year — resulting in Rosh Pinah becoming a significantly lower cost zinc producer. We are pleased with the ROI delivered by AMC, and we have engaged them to complete the mining components of the Rosh Pinah Expansion “RP2.0” Feasibility Study."

OZ Minerals Limited

"Contract negotiations were made transparent by using productivity and cost data from AMC’s Open Pit Benchmarking. The data identified opportunities for equipment productivity improvements, which translate to lower unit mining costs. With transparent data, we were able to negotiate a schedule of rates which benefits both the client and the contractor."
- Robert Boyd - Mining Manager

Birla Nifty Copper Mine

"I have utilised the AMC Benchmarking service in a number of underground mining operations for which I was responsible. The information gleaned enabled the management team to assess the operations performance against similar producers to determine focussed performance improvement plans. Immediate and longer term strategies were developed that ensured the robustness of the operation in a challenging environment. The base information provided in the AMC Benchmarking is an invaluable tool for those wishing to optimise their existing operations."
