Many mining projects in Iran face challenges at a stage where they have progressed solely based on theory and engineers’ assumptions, whereas the combination of theoretical studies and correct, specialized technical implementation leads to achieving the objectives of any organization.
Exploration, extraction, and exploitation are three different worlds; however, many companies manage all three with the same team and the same approach, which leads to their failure.
We believe that the most successful exploration and mining projects are built on the integration of three fundamental elements:
• Field geology and accurate mapping
• Utilizing modern technologies and data analysis
• Teamwork among specialists from different fields of earth sciences and mining
The Vira Holding Specialized Geological and Mining Clinic is an agile center and a network of leading specialists in the fields of economic geology, geological mapping, geophysics, geochemistry, remote sensing, GIS, drilling, resource modeling, mining, geotechnics, hydrogeology, mineral processing, and mining economics. For each project, it forms a specialized team tailored to the objectives of that project.
From the initial stage of geological identification and exploration to economic evaluation and mine development, we will stand by your side.
Exploration Operations (from zero to resource identification)
• Designing an optimized exploration drilling network (minimum drilling meters, maximum information)
• Deposit models
• Determining exploration targets
• Interpretation of mineralization systems
• Conducting field operations and systematic sampling
• Exploration drilling (machine drilling and core sampling)
• Geochemical analysis and accurate grade determination
Extraction Operations (removing mineral materials at the lowest cost)
• Determining the appropriate extraction method according to the type of deposit (open-pit, underground)
• Implementing drilling and blasting patterns
• Optimized loading, transportation, and stockpiling
• Controlling fragmentation size to reduce processing costs
Mining Exploitation Operations (continuous mine management)
• Implementing annual and seasonal extraction plans
• Managing machinery fleets and human resources
• Controlling grade and sub-grade material
• Monitoring wall stability and mine safety
