We appreciate AMC’s help and support with the Engebø due diligence and look forward to working with the team again on other projects."

    "Rob, James, Thank you so much for your excellent work performed on the project and high-quality, timely deliverables provided. It is always a great pleasure to work with you, gentlemen. Many, many thanks!"
    - Ivan Kharitonov, Director of Internal Audit

    Iron Road Limited

    "Iron Road Limited appointed AMC Consultants to review the mine design for its Central Eyre Iron Ore Project with a view to identify fatal flaws. The specific focus was on in-pit crushers, semi-mobile crushers, trucks, and excavators for the in-pit-crushing-and-conveying (IPCC) design. AMC also provided support to Iron Road in relation to CAPEX and OPEX estimates, and identified opportunities for improvement. AMC provided a quick and accurate assessment, identified a number of opportunities to enhance the design, and added value to the project while mitigating technical risk. AMC was able to deliver the project within the required timeframe and budget estimate, demonstrating a high level of professionalism and technical competence."
    - Larry Ingle, General Manager

    Kumba Iron Ore

    "The Sishen mining team delivered a 15% increase in ore production for 2014. AMC’s expert knowledge in mine operations and planning was of great assistance in identifying significant opportunities that were ready for immediate implementation. AMC worked closely with the Sishen team in 2014 to assist in acting upon these opportunities. A highlight of AMC's work was its involvement in strategically re-designing the mine extraction sequencing. This work has greatly assisted the increase in 2014 ore production, while enabling production levels to be sustained over the remaining life-of-mine schedule. I would have no hesitation in recommending AMC’s services to any mine operator seeking real value delivery in these challenging market conditions."
    - Theunis Otto, Head of Mining

    Copper Division of Anglo American in Santiago, Chile

    "I had twice the opportunity to work with the AMC Consultants performing technical audits of our mining operations in Chile. It is of great advantage to Anglo American that The AMC Mining Consultants Ltd. has a wide range of mining expertise from exploration and evaluation of mineral resources through mine planning, mining schedule optimization to geotechnical assessments in both operational environments: open cast and underground mining. Indeed, the AMC group met our expectations carrying out its work diligently, with enthusiasm and technical excellence. In the execution of works the company AMC was exceeding our expectation proposing solutions and assessing us with eagerness and commitment. The objectives and deadlines were always achieved."
