Technical Due Diligence of a Gold Project
Main service areas: Investment Advisory, Mining Consulting Services, Exploration Services
Timeframe: 2023
Au
Location: West Africa
TEX Mining was contracted to perform due diligence of an advanced stage orogenic gold exploration project in the West African Craton. Preliminary work involved a desktop fatal flaw analysis and site visits conducted for verification of geological information as well as CR & GR risk clearance.
Multidisciplinary work required collaboration between Mining, Resource, Exploration and Metallurgy teams. Detailed due diligence encompassed: verification and compilation of existing databases; recreation of geological and resource models; evaluation of additional geological potential of the tenement; pit shell optimization; economic valuations and sensitivity analysis.

Enhancing Drill & Blast Efficiency in Copper Mine
Main service areas: Operational Efficiency, Innovations, Mining Consulting Services
Timeframe: 2022
Cu
Location: South America
TEX Mining was engaged to execute an operational efficiency project for an open-pit copper mine in South America. The site faced issues with drill and blast quality control and insufficient performance of the excavators and dump trucks, resulting in underutilized plant capacity and a failure to meet both planned mining volumes and their corresponding unit costs.
Our team conducted a comprehensive diagnostic of the mining operations in order to identify bottlenecks and opportunities for operational improvement. By implementing tailored solutions, the client achieved higher drill and blast productivity, ensured mine plan compliance and reduced its OPEX. To ensure sustainability of changes, the team has updated its standard operational procedures and conducted a series of on-site trainings for key stakeholders.
