Minvest delivers geotechnical analysis and design inputs that support safe, technically robust and economically defensible mining decisions under JORC (2012) and NI 43-101 reporting frameworks. Our geotechnical work focuses on how rock mass behaviour, slope and ground stability assumptions directly influence mine design, production schedules, safety and long-term project viability.

We undertake geotechnical studies with a clear focus on feasibility-level realism. This includes interpretation of geotechnical data, development and validation of geotechnical models, and provision of design parameters for open-pit and underground mine planning. Our work addresses slope angles, support requirements, ground control strategies and geomechanical constraints that materially affect reserve conversion and economic outcomes.

Geotechnical inputs are fully integrated with geology, mine planning, metallurgy and economic evaluation, allowing early identification of disconnects between ground conditions, design assumptions and operational expectations. This integrated approach reduces the risk of overly aggressive designs, unachievable production targets or underestimated stability-related costs.

Minvest's role extends beyond advisory. We prepare, review and take responsibility for geotechnical inputs to PFS and DFS studies, including design criteria, stability assessments and risk evaluations aligned with JORC and NI 43-101 disclosure requirements. Where required, we provide independent technical review and decision-level interpretation of third-party geotechnical work.

All geotechnical work is led by professionals with direct operational exposure, enabling practical assessment of construction risk, operational constraints and long-term ground performance. The outcome is geotechnical input that supports execution-ready designs, bankability and safe, sustainable operations.
