Minerals and Mining

Both the UK minerals industry and the coal industry have undergone radical changes over the last few years and face intensifying economic, environmental, legislative, planning and political pressures. As a result, these extractive industries need to demonstrate a continued or enhanced commitment to the environment, and the most successful will capitalise on the opportunity to create additional value.

Entec's offering combines the widest range of environmental services capability with the detailed knowledge and practical experience of industry insiders. We offer skills and expertise in all development stages and beyond, from site identification, feasibility and design, mineral and development planning and environmental assessment, to after-use, restoration and rehabilitation. Our established minerals team has the ability to select the most appropriate professional input to a given project.
