The NOMA team applies both technical expertise and practical experience to create an efficient and effective geotechnical study for mining projects. We have an in-depth understanding of data collection, laboratory testing and rock mass behaviour (including highly anisotropic rock masses). This ensures that we can help our clients investigate the geotechnical challenges and to understand how their rock masses will behave.

Our team of engineers can deliver holistic engineering solutions ranging from feasibility studies to operations to detailed engineering drawings. Our aim is to provide our clients with cost effective, on-time solutions to adequately control geotechnical risks.

Our rock mechanics expertise includes:

• Geotechnical Investigation Design.
• Sample Selection and Laboratory Testing.
• Geotechnical and Structural Logging.
• Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) Engineering.
• Rock Mass Characterisation.
• Three-Dimensional Numerical Analysis (FLAC3D, 3DEC).
• Investigation Site Supervision and Project Management.
• Training and Mentoring.
