These include Natalka, Olimpiada, Sukhoi Log, Talnakh, Syrymbet, to name just a few.
Planning and Construction
Once a potential mine is proven viable, the planning and construction phase begins, which involves applying for and obtaining permits, continuing economic studies and refining mine plans.
Infrastructure development also takes place at this stage, as mines are often located in remote areas that require the construction of roads and provision of electricity.
Providing top-notch quality and accurate translations at this stage is extremely important, and GEF boasts being one of the few players in the marketplace to contribute to the development and construction of major global projects in the mining industry.
GEF has lots of experience translating mine plans, lengthy design and engineering paperwork, including trade off studies for mines, process plants, tailing dams, declines, mine camps, haul and access roads, explosives magazines, maintenance shops and auxiliary infrastructure facilities.
Operating Mines
Once the operation is ready to begin, the asset officially becomes an operating mine. During this phase, the ore is extracted, processed and refined to produce metal. This section forms the bulk of the focus of the financial model for an operating mine. Once all the ore has been extracted, the mine closure process begins, which can last for several years. The process includes clean-up, reclamation and environmental monitoring.
Since its inception, GEF has translated dozens of financial models, operation mine closure and reclamation reports as well environmental and social impact assessments.
Mining Industry Reserves and Resources
A mining company’s main assets are its reserves and resources. These are ores that contain economic materials that are viable to mine. The proper understanding of a reserve and resource statement is of paramount importance, as it is the source of information for building the financial model.
GEF Mining expertise includes a profound knowledge of JORC and NI 43-101 Codes. Our proofreaders for the most important documents are QP/CP for JORC and NI 43-101.
Whether your resource estimation and reconciliation reports are made in accordance with international standards or Russia/CIS-specific GKZ and TKZ protocols, we will ensure their professional translation with deep insight into your industry.
