Our experts prepared a Natura 2000 assessment for a sensitive area. Read how our multidisciplinary team produced an expert report that was praised by the authorities and serves as the basis for sustainable planning of the area.

Learn how Endeavour Mining is leading the way in biodiversity reporting with WSP’s support and TNFD-aligned strategy.

The definitive closure of the Ventanas Smelter, operated by Codelco, marks not only the end of an industrial era but also the beginning of a new standard in environmental remediation and sustainable mining.

Protecting employee health in the work environment is not only socially responsible and the right thing to do but is also directly related to an organization’s ability to sustain a productive and engaged workforce. Best practice in occupational health necessitates a process of continuous improvement, a process to which one of our global gold mining clients was truly committed.

Collaborating with Cardiff University, we designed a sustainable approach to treating polluted metal mine water and are implementing it on the first site of Natural Resources Wales’ nationwide programme.

Helping to protect and manage the long-term viability and biodiversity of the area.

Owners of a large open-pit mine in the United States embarked on a program to minimize ongoing risks and plan for responsible closure after the ore body is exhausted.

The remediation of the former Giant Mine in Yellowknife, NWT, co-managed by the governments of Canada and the Northwest Territories, is a massive undertaking. The Giant Mine Remediation Project’s focus is on managing the arsenic trioxide waste and remediating the entire site.

Using photogrammetry and 3D point cloud capabilities, teams can now record, analyze, and monitor mine slope stability more efficiently and, most importantly, from a safe distance.

Potash is a group of potassium-bearing minerals and chemicals that are found in underground deposits that must be mined. There is no substitute for potash in fertilizers, and without its beneficial boost to crop yields we would struggle to feed the world. Identifying new deposits is a part of ensuring a steady supply of potash to meet the growing demands of the world’s agricultural industry.

WSP is helping plan development of what could become one of the biggest gold-copper mines in the world, using an efficient and cost-effective underground mining method.

Located in northern Chile, QB2 is one of the largest undeveloped copper resources in the world. When complete, it will be a world-class asset with low operating costs and an initial mine life of 28 years with significant additional growth potential.
