We are a leading provider of civil engineering, construction, and full-lifecycle project execution services to surface and underground mining operations. From initial feasibility and responsible procurement to design, construction, commissioning, and long-term asset care, our integrated approach ensures every project is executed safely, on time, and with minimal environmental impact.
Driven by the goal of creating lasting value, our multidisciplinary team partners closely with clients to deliver tailored solutions that maximise production and resource recovery while prioritising the safety of people, the protection of ecosystems, and the empowerment of host communities.
Gold, Chrome, Platinum Group Metals (PGMs: platinum, palladium, rhodium, etc.), and semi-precious/precious stones (e.g., emeralds, tanzanite).
Key regions across South Africa, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, DRC, Zambia, and more — targeting world-class settings like the Bushveld Complex (PGMs/chrome), Great Dyke (chrome/PGMs), and greenstone belts (gold).
We specialise in high-resolution geomagnetic surveys (ground magnetics and aeromagnetic) combined with drone mapping, geochemical analysis, and AI-driven interpretation to detect magnetic anomalies associated with mineralised structures, faults, and host rocks. These methods reduce exploration risk, pinpoint drill targets, and accelerate discovery in covered or complex terrains.
VTech Minerals leverages geomagnetic surveys as a cornerstone of our exploration strategy, proven effective in sub-Saharan Africa’s mineral-rich environments:
Ground and aeromagnetic surveys have delineated shear zones and structural traps hosting gold mineralization. In analogous projects, high-resolution magnetics identified extensions of known deposits under Kalahari cover, leading to multi-million-ounce discoveries by revealing linear anomalies linked to quartz veins and alterations.
High-resolution aeromagnetic data integrated with 3D seismic data mapped "loss-of-ground" features such as faults, replacement pegmatoids, and iron-rich ultramafic. Case studies from Rustenburg-area platinum mines show that these surveys mitigate risks by identifying magnetic anomalies associated with magnetite-bearing reefs, enabling precise mine planning and resource expansion.
Aeromagnetic surveys trace chromite seams in layered intrusions, distinguishing magnetic highs from ultramafic hosts. Successful applications have outlined alluvial and seam extensions, supporting efficient targeting of high-grade (>45% Cr₂O₃) zones in valley-flank deposits.
