15 years of excellence in providing consulting services to the mining industry

Minxcon is an African-focused mining consultancy based in Johannesburg specialising in technical reports, feasibility studies, mineral asset valuation, geological modelling, mine and processing design, and exploration services. Minxcon has a reliable track record of more than 15 years and the team members have many years of experience in the mining and production environment over a wide range of commodities and geological environments.

The company produces high quality Competent Person Reports (CPR), technical reports and valuations that are compliant to international reporting standards and have been globally accepted in all the reporting jurisdictions including the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), AIM, Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE), New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and others.

Further, Minxcon’s team of professional engineers also provide study work services including concept studies, pre-feasibility studies, definitive feasibility studies as well as bankable feasibility studies i.e., a study that is prepared with sufficient detail to allow a company to submit it to investors or lenders when seeking funding for a project.

Qualified mineral economic professionals provide comprehensive financial modelling and mineral asset valuation services that are done in compliance with the international valuation reporting codes.

Resource geologists produce technically sound, yet practical solutions for both geological and geostatistical models.  The team produces best-practice world-class high quality mineral resource estimates conducted in accordance with all the reporting codes. The 3D geological models produced are essential for quality mine design work.

The experienced team of mining engineers have the skills and practical mining experience required to conduct open-pit optimisation and design, as well as underground mine design and scheduling, walking the extra mile with clients, providing a fresh innovative approach to mine design. The metallurgical engineers are well equipped to carry out technical studies, design processing plants, and manage the implementation.

The exploration services include geographic information system data compilation, exploration target generation, geological mapping, drilling and on-site exploration programme management across Africa, as well as the sign-off on Quality Assurance and Quality Control processes and procedures.

Minxcon follows an integrated approach by utilising experts from various disciplines which include geologists, mining engineers, metallurgists, engineers, and mineral economists to work together as a team to produce various outputs. This ability to provide services and advice from the project inception stage, through the financing period, all the way to production and mine closure, makes Minxcon an exceptionally well diversified advisory group and a first stop for mining companies requiring professional expert advice.
