Exploration & Mining

Natural resource exploration and mining require a variety of services during their operational lifetime. Pöyry can provide services for all phases.

For the exploration industry - ranging from base metals to REEs, industrial minerals or dimension stones - Pöyry conducts drilling, geology, geophysics, chemistry and hydrology services, to name just a few.

Pöyry helps clients analyse the market potential, identify suitable exploration areas and develop investigation strategy. We understand that, at the same time, environmental, land use, permitting, baseline mapping and public involvement must be treated with care.

We also realise that novel methods used in data analysis and interpretation and in exploration modelling can result in significantly more tonnage of discovered resources.

In mine development phase, Pöyry offers services for EIA, plant design, process engineering, logistics, spatial and geotechnical planning, construction management, water supply and treatment, and environmental systems. In addition, special geoscientific services are available, such as hydrogeology or rock mechanics.

There are typically challenging exploration phases during the mining period to find new exploitable ore occurrences. Every mining project also has its closing and site rehabilitation phase.

Pöyry brings the best and most suitable solutions for client success and environmental safety.
