Geotechnical Services

Geotechnical Services

we provide high-level geotechnical and mining support services essential for the planning, development, and operation of both metallic and non-metallic ore deposits. Based in Bauchi State, Nigeria’s emerging mining hub, we deliver data-driven solutions that meet regulatory standards and investor expectations.


Our services are designed to de-risk mineral projects, optimize mine designs, and support regulatory compliance from exploration through production.

Our Core Geotechnical and Mining Support Services

1. Subsurface Investigation & Characterization

  • Core drilling and borehole logging

  • Geological and structural mapping

  • Geotechnical soil and rock sampling

  • Laboratory testing (Atterberg limits, UCS, triaxial, permeability)

  • Groundwater modeling and hydrogeological profiling

2. Slope Stability & Pit Design Analysis

  • Stability assessment for open pits and waste dumps

  • Design of stable excavation walls and tailings storage facilities

  • Ground control recommendations for underground mines

3. Foundation & Infrastructure Geotechnics

  • Geotechnical investigation for plant, roads, and support infrastructure

  • Bearing capacity analysis and settlement prediction

  • Earthworks and ground improvement recommendations


Mining Project Support Services

4. Annual Work Plan (AWP) Development

We prepare compliant and strategically phased Annual Work Plans for all stages of mining operations in accordance with Nigerian mining regulations. This includes proposed exploration/mining activities, manpower planning, budget forecasts, and expected outputs.

5. Progress & Technical Reporting

We compile comprehensive Progress Reports with detailed technical documentation, performance metrics, and geotechnical updates—supporting stakeholder engagement and regulatory submissions to the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development (MMSD) and Mining Cadastre Office (MCO).

6. Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) & Baseline Studies

We coordinate and execute EIA studies in collaboration with licensed environmental consultants. Services include:

  • Baseline environmental studies (air, soil, water, biodiversity)

  • Socioeconomic and community impact assessments

  • Mitigation and rehabilitation planning

  • Preparation of Environmental Management Plans (EMP)


Target Minerals

Our geotechnical and support services apply to a range of mining projects including:

Metallic Ores:
Gold, Tin, Lead-Zinc, Iron Ore, Copper, Columbite, Tantalite

Non-Metallic Ores:
Kaolin, Lithium, Monazite, Zircon, Silicon, Ilmenite
