Rock Mechanics, Geotechnical Engineering, Infrastructure and Mining

We use our expertise in structural geology to provide expert rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering to a variety of clients in the mining, infrastructure and private sector. Our rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering services integrate with our structural geology services to provide the best technical solution for our client’s projects.

Mining services:

  • Site assessment and rock mass classification – drilling, mapping, and remote sensing
  • Design of open pit mines – drilling through to design
  • Design of ground support for underground mines
  • Stope optimization for underground mines
  • Quarries – resource estimates, aggregate quality mapping and modelling, extraction planning 

Infrastructure services:

  • Site assessment and rock mass classification – drilling, mapping, and remote sensing
  • Tunnels – design, stability assessment, mapping, and remediation
  • Rock slopes – stability assessment, design, and remediation
  • Foundations on rock
  • Shoring design for temporary excavations
  • Rockfall hazard assessments
  • We have done several projects with Terrane in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Tony and the rest of the staff are great to work with and provide excellent knowledge and cutting-edge technology. I would highly recommend them.
