Exploration & evaluation
Geological mapping, sampling and technical studies help assess a deposit. Feasibility, permissions and environmental considerations inform decisions about development.

Understanding the journey.
Respecting the resource.
A view of the main stages that connect mineral deposits with usable materials.
The mining process
From exploration to recovery.
Extraction & processing
Mining methods depend on the deposit. Processing separates valuable material from ore, with safety, water, waste and recovery considered throughout the operation.
Refining & rehabilitation
Further refining can improve metal purity. Rehabilitation planning considers land stability, water management and the condition of a site after mining.
Responsible development
The questions that matter.
Mineral development is a long-term activity with responsibilities to workers, neighbouring communities and the environment.
Important project questions include operational permissions, worker protection, water use, waste handling, land restoration and community engagement.
For enquiries about a particular project, request project-specific information directly. This overview describes mining processes and does not represent a list of operating sites or mineral reserves.
