Mine Surveying and Legal Survey Compliance

Accurate mine surveying underpins safe development, statutory plans and boundary compliance across African operations. This programme develops practical surveying competence covering underground and surface measurement, plan production and the legal survey duties expected of a mine. Delegates connect survey accuracy to safety, production reconciliation and regulatory reporting.

What you will be able to do

  • Apply surveying methods for underground and surface mine measurement.
  • Produce and update statutory mine plans to required standards.
  • Manage survey control, pegging and boundary compliance.
  • Reconcile surveyed volumes with planned and reported production.
  • Support safety by mapping hazards, workings and no go areas.
  • Maintain survey records that meet regulatory and audit requirements.
