The process
Four stages. One standard.
Every tonne of ore follows the same disciplined path from mountain to market.
Survey & Geological Planning
LiDAR drones and underground sensors map ore zones to centimetre precision before a single drill bit touches the rock. Deposit models are reviewed by independent geologists before any extraction plan is approved.
Drilling & Blasting
Precision drill rigs bore 120mm holes to exact depths. Controlled blasting is executed under seismic monitoring to protect tunnels, surface structures, and nearby communities from ground movement.
Haulage & Ore Processing
Electric haul trucks transport blasted rock to crushing facilities. Gravity separation, flotation, and cyanide leaching extract gold and copper concentrates to certified purity grades at our on-site refinery.
Secure Logistics & Delivery
Refined product is assayed, hallmarked, and transported by armoured carrier to buyers and central banks. Full traceability documentation accompanies every shipment from mine to vault.
Heavy machinery
Power that moves mountains
Our fleet of 60-tonne haul trucks, multi-boom drill rigs, and continuous miners represents CHF 380 million in precision engineering — maintained to manufacturer standards and operated by certified crews around the clock.
Haul Trucks
24× 60-tonne electric haul trucks. Zero direct emissions underground.
Drill Rigs
18× multi-boom rigs. Automated feed control for 0.1mm bore precision.
Crushers
Jaw & cone crushers processing 4,200 tonnes of ore per day across all sites.
Survey Drones
12× underground LiDAR drones mapping tunnels in real time.

Safety first
Zero-harm is not a goal — it's a requirement
Every shift starts with a 15-minute safety briefing. Every worker carries a personal gas monitor and proximity alert. Our safety management system has recorded zero major incidents since 2019.
- Zero lost-time major injuries since 2019
- Real-time atmospheric monitoring across all tunnels
- Emergency response teams on-site 24/7
- Annual third-party safety audits (SGS Certified)
- Monthly community safety disclosure reports
