Mining starts with companies pegging ground in the pursuit of finding different commodities in order to mining these minerals. McGregor Surveys can assist in firstly marking out these exploration leases and then eventually surveying these mining tenements under the government’s regulations.
McGregor Surveys is approved and Licensed, to carry out authorised surveys for mining tenements for the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) – See authorisation letter. Along with these pioneering services, McGregor Surveys can also provide these other services in the phases of exploration, construction and operations in the Mining sector.
