Solid Minerals & Gemstones Advisory

Integrated mining consultancy for Nigeria's gemstones and solid minerals

Sounthbridge Mining Consultants ltd guides ventures from deposit evaluation through licensing, production and land reclamation.

Integrated Scope

Exploration, licensing and mine management in one practice

A mining project involves more than finding a deposit. Licensing, local relationships and project management all matter. We connect geological exploration with the regulatory and operational steps that follow.

Since 2011 we have supported engineering, development and gold mining consultation work, including licensing, exploration and production for Aisas Mining Ltd in Kwara State.

Core Dimensions

Three areas of consulting support

Each project has its own requirements, so we begin by understanding what needs to happen next.

Resource

Resource identification

Locating potential mineral deposits and evaluating them through exploration, from initial assessment to production planning.

Compliance

Statutory compliance

Licensing, Cadastre coordination, government liaison and royalty payments, managed alongside community development agreements.

Execution

Field execution

Project management of exploration and production, with land reclamation carried through to site closure.

Operators and concession holders planning solid mineral or gemstone developments in Nigeria can start with a focused review of their project's next steps.
