Effective due diligence and thorough project evaluation are crucial for making informed decisions in mining investments.
Technical Due Diligence
Geological and Resource Assessment: We analyze geological data to verify resource estimates, ensuring alignment with standards such as NI 43-101, JORC, SK-1300, and KAZRC.
Mining Methods and Design Review: Our experts assess proposed mining methods, equipment, and site layouts to determine technical feasibility and potential operational risks.
Metallurgical and Processing Assessment: We evaluate processing methods, recovery rates, and metallurgical test results to ensure the proposed operations are technically sound and efficient.
Financial Due Diligence
Capital and Operating Cost Evaluation (CAPEX and OPEX): We conduct in-depth analysis of projected capital and operating costs, providing clarity on total project investment and ongoing expenses.
Economic Modeling and Cash Flow Analysis: Our team develops financial models that forecast cash flows, profitability, and return on investment, using various price scenarios and sensitivity analysis.
Market Analysis and Revenue Projections: Based on current and projected commodity prices, we provide revenue projections that align with realistic market conditions and prepare for potential fluctuations.
Regulatory and Environmental Compliance
Environmental Impact Assessment: We review environmental impact studies and compliance reports to confirm alignment with regulatory standards, identifying any potential environmental risks.
Social and Community Engagement Review: Our team evaluates the project's social impact and stakeholder engagement strategies, ensuring sustainable development practices are in place.
Permitting and Legal Review: We examine the project's permitting and legal documentation to verify regulatory compliance and reduce the risk of legal obstacles in development.
Risk Assessment and Mitigation Planning
Fatal Flaw Analysis and Risk Identification: We conduct a structured risk assessment that includes fatal flaw analysis, covering technical, financial, environmental, and social factors. Probabilistic methods quantify uncertainties and identify issues that could compromise project viability.
Mitigation Strategies and Contingency Plans: For each identified risk, we develop actionable mitigation strategies and contingency plans to reduce potential impacts and support project resilience.
Project Timeline and Milestone Review: Our evaluation includes a review of project timelines and development milestones, assessing potential delays and impacts on project viability.
