AMC’s Hill of Value® process helps our client's Canada base metal operations unlock near-term mining opportunities and more than US$1.0B in value by adopting a new cut-off grade strategy.

In recent years, many companies have joined the race to develop the next graphite mine. With the rapid development of alternative energy sources for many applications, improved batteries with increased storage capacity have become critical to world growth. As a result, the lithium, cadmium, nickel, vanadium, and graphite markets have seen an increase in demand; especially high purity, large sized graphite flakes, which are able to attract a significant premium in the current market.

Project achievements: Undertaking the mining component of the DFS, LG pit optimization, Strategic mine plans, Pit designs, Identified the wet overburden surface to improve cashflow and NPV by selectively mining overburden with dredges above the ore, Tactical mine plan with material balance, destination and haulage.

Whatever your touchpoint to iron ore mining, be it in the banking, finance, independent advisor or company sector, you likely require expert technical advice that spans geology, mining, geotech and corporate, if not a combination of all these.

This whitepaper examines several recent adaptations to mining systems and practices and includes detailed productivity and cost analyses.
