Striking Gold Together: Your Mining Consultancy Solution
At Global Links, our 10 years of successful experience in the African mining industry have enriched our expertise. Having actively contributed to and gleaned insights from the dynamic mining landscape, we're excited to unveil the expansion of our services. Our focus now encompasses providing specialized consultancy services tailored for African mines, supported by a team of seasoned professionals deeply versed in the industry's nuances.
Our Approach
Our approach is straightforward yet impactful. We designate a professional with tailored expertise to tackle the distinctive challenges encountered by our clients, aligning with sustainable mining practices in Africa. Our process commences with meticulous communication to grasp the specific problem areas identified. Subsequently, our appointed consultant conducts an on-site audit, melding paperwork analysis with field observations to gauge the operation's skill level in line with industry benchmarks.
Upon gathering the requisite information, our consultant crafts a comprehensive report, delivered to mine management within agreed timelines. Post-presentation, collaborative discussions with management ensue, fostering the formulation and execution of corrective actions aligned with African mining industry standards. Emphasizing a collaborative approach, we work hand in hand with the operational team to ensure sustainable and efficient mining practices.
