Mines, processing plants and exploration programs disturb large areas of ground, often in remote country, on tight programs. The four Spotters Group companies help resources teams clear, dig and build without harming wildlife, heritage or people, and without spreading weeds between leases.
Exploration programs
Drill pads and access tracks are small, but there are many of them and they move quickly. Fauna Spotters crews clear ahead of the dozer and inspect habitat, Heritage Spotters monitors ground disturbance where cultural heritage is likely, and Biosecurity Spotters checks rigs and support vehicles for weed seed before they move between sites.
Mine expansions and new pits
Larger clearing fronts need full Fauna Spotter Catcher crews, dewatering rescue and breeding place inspections. Service Spotters supports excavation near existing site services and overhead lines, and provides confined space and working at heights standby during plant construction.
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitated land is easily taken over by weeds and pest animals. Biosecurity Spotters runs follow-up weed rounds and pest animal programs, and Fauna Spotters installs and monitors nest boxes where your conditions require them.
