Technical Audits for the Mining Industry

​

Pro Optima conducts specialised technical audits across mining operations, combining audit expertise with practical understanding of the operational environment.
 

Our technical audit experience spans a wide range of mining activities. Examples of our technical audit areas include:
 

• Metal Accounting – reconciliation, reporting accuracy and control effectiveness

• On-Site Contractors – performance, compliance, commercial viability and invoicing

• Assay Laboratories – sampling, testing, quality control and reporting processes

• Fuel Management – procurement, storage, dispensing, consumption, reconciliation and loss prevention

• Security & Asset Protection – safeguarding personnel, assets, minerals and equipment, including site security controls

• Mining Operations – underground, opencast and other surface mining activities

• Underground & Surface Transport – logistics, fleet management and operational controls

• Mine Support & Wall Stability – ground support, structural integrity and slope stability
   

By combining technical expertise with audit and operational insight, Pro Optima looks beyond the documented process to understand how the operation actually works. This enables us to assess the effectiveness of controls, highlight weaknesses and opportunities, and consider their implications for operational performance, risk and financial control.
