Mine Tailings Dam-Las Bambas Peru / Golden Grove, Western Australia/ Rosebery, Tasmania

MMG 2016, 2018-2019

Austral provided equipment and training to MMG staff at Las Bambas, Peru to determine the volume of their tailings dam.

Austral also provided similar expertise in Golden Grove, Western Australia, surveying a decant pond and is currently completing monthly surveys at MMG's Rosebery site in Tasmania.

 

Sediment Pond Surveys

Geelong city council, Wannon water, Barwon Water, South Gippsland Water 2017-2019

We are regularly requested to survey sediment/ settlement ponds for councils and water treatment plants to assist with the management of those ponds by determining the volume available.

Weir pool and river bed mapping

Glenelg Hopkins CMA, North Central CMA, 

Surveying weir pools and river beds gives waterway managers valuable information as to the performance of structures such as fish hotels and large woody debris reintroduction, or to model the hydrology of the waterway.
