Challenges:

A defining dynamic for the mining industry related to environmental management is a prolonged period of public scrutiny upon the environmental and social performance of the global mining industry. This paired with a ‘post boom’ era of financial constraints and technological disruption has resulted in challenges for the mining industry.

Commonly these challenges arise as follows:

• Managing your regulatory approvals and permits required for your asset development, especially for those organisations with new projects.
• Developing and implementing strategies for changing environmental compliance goal posts, asset mergers and acquisitions, innovation and environmental management systems to contribute to your asset’s value.
• Preparing and planning for operations to ensure a smooth transition from planning and design through to construction.
• Improving environmental management efficiency to allow for production volumes whilst reducing costs for mining organisations already producing.
• Understanding complex regulatory and policy changes such as environmental offsets, water licencing and Commonwealth approvals requirements.
• Preparing for increased public and regulatory scrutiny of approvals processes and operational activities.

Solutions:

Nitro Solutions strategically partners with organisations and people to develop practical and future thinking solutions to allow for growth and risk management. Our experienced mining professionals deliver efficient and practical results through their deep understanding of mining operations at a site level through to the commercial context.
