Projects
We translate deep technical expertise into tangible results, helping our clients build safer operations and unlock greater productivity.
Porphyry copper-gold deposit
Caving propagation and subsidence analysis
This engagement involved delivering the critical geotechnical studies for the Cortadera block caving PFS, translating complex data into clear forecasts that ensured project safety and de-risked development.
Data review. The work included reviewing and updating all existing geotechnical data to establish a high-confidence baseline model for analysis.
3D non-linear modelling. Advanced 3D models were developed to simulate complex ground behaviour and assess underground stability.
Propagation forecasts. Our team delivered data-driven forecasts for cave propagation and surface subsidence to de-risk the mine plan.
Major underground operation
Infrastructure stability and macroblock interaction
GMT conducted a detailed geotechnical assessment for a large-scale operation, focusing on the stability of critical extraction levels to safeguard infrastructure and ensure long-term production continuity.
Stability assessment. The assessment analyzed extraction/undercut levels and associated infrastructure to ensure long-term operational safety.
Interaction analysis. Our engineers modeled complex geotechnical interactions between adjacent, large-scale mining blocks.
Ground support. The final recommendations defined practical, optimized ground support systems to manage identified stability risks.
Open pit mining
Assesment of life of mine (LOM)
This project required a comprehensive LOM assessment for a major open pit, validating long-term stability and identifying design optimizations to unlock greater economic recovery.
Stability analysis. Large-scale numerical models were deployed to analyze inter-ramp and critical global slope designs.
Factory of safety. Our team calculated the Factor of Safety for the final LOM design, validating the plan against all design criteria.
Recommendations. The final report delivered actionable recommendations for slope angle optimization, balancing stability with economic recovery.
