Areas of expertise

Across the entire mining project lifecycle, from geological research to mine construction and rehabilitation.

  1. Geology and exploration Exploring a deposit of oil, gas, water, diamond, iron, coal or gold
  2. Planning Planning a mine, a region’s mining industry, or the modernisation of an old coal mine
  3. Construction and rehabilitation Building or reconstructing roads, conveyors, tunnels, beneficiation factories and coal mines
  4. Mining machinery Mining machinery, grinding and sorting equipment, or a plant to build them
  5. Technical audit Checking the condition of mine lifts, ventilators, compressors and stationary installations
  6. Environmental protection Evaluating a project’s risks, and restoring mined land until crops can grow on it

The ore base, at nano level

At nano level, the conditions of ore base formation and the physical and mechanical characteristics of the rock tell us exactly what the composition is, and the best way to minimise losses of the valuable product during beneficiation.

The future of mining is not to prohibit mining but to reclaim and clean the land it leaves, to a level that suits agriculture. We know how to re-balance the ecosystem and restore harmony.

We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

How we work with you

On a consultancy arrangement, TIME can raise the capacity of an existing enterprise and cut its losses, with tailor-made solutions for problems in current operations and for transportation and the beneficiation process.

We are open to alliances, strategic partnerships and joint ventures, and can act as technical and scientific partner or contractor: from project initiation and feasibility studies, through the supply of mining machinery and turnkey services, to the transfer of technology to local workers.
