Mining risk assessment & fatal-flaw analysis
Identify and quantify the risks that change NPV, schedule and license-to-operate. We assess geological uncertainty, geotechnical and tailings exposure, mine plan robustness, process variability, logistics and market inputs—then rank scenarios, mitigations and monitoring to keep your project financeable in Nordic/EU contexts.
Request more informationFrom uncertainty to an investable risk profile
We map uncertainties across the value chain and show how each can shift economics or timing.
Geology & resources: sampling representativity, domaining, variography and classification risk; impacts on selectivity and dilution.
Geotechnical & tailings: slope/ground control, groundwater, TSF stewardship to GISTM, surveillance and trigger levels.
Mine planning & operations: fleet availability, haulage bottlenecks, ventilation limits, power reliability and labour availability under Nordic conditions.
Processing: variability in grindability/recovery, reagent risks and impurity penalties.
Permitting & ESG: pathway risk, baseline gaps, stakeholder issues and closure liabilities (ARO/IFRS).
Quantification that boards and lenders accept
We prioritize risks by likelihood × consequence and connect them to value drivers (grade, recovery, strip ratio, availability, price/FX).
Tools & outputs:
risk register, bow-tie analysis, sensitivity dashboards and scenario ranges; monitoring KPIs and early-warning thresholds. Where material, we recommend targeted testwork, design updates or operating controls with costed mitigations.
Embedding risk into decisions—not as an appendix
Risk is integrated into design criteria, schedules and economics, not parked in a back chapter.
Why it matters:
you avoid optimistic plans, reduce re-work and present a financeable case that meets lender covenants and European regulator expectations—from Sweden and Finland to broader EU jurisdictions.
