Why choose us
Operational insight. Technical clarity.
One unified team.
We deliver focused, strategy-led mining studies that test assumptions early and guide investment decisions. The outcome is bespoke studies that accelerate delivery timelines through efficient time management relative to the traditional consulting model.
Our organisation works through a combination of onsite integrated teams and the provision of advisory, study, and strategic support services. This structure creates a powerful feedback loop between operational reality and technical decision-making.
We are not a single-discipline consultancy. MEC delivers integrated, turn-key project and study execution across the full mining value chain — from geology, geotechnical, mining, processing, infrastructure, environment, approvals and closure.
What we do
We provide strategic and technical advisory across the full mining lifecycle. Our team supports confident decision-making through practical insight, integrated expertise and a clear understanding of operational realities.

What our clients say
Real outcomes shaped through trusted partnerships and clear, confident delivery.
Anastasia Dmyterko
Geology Superintendent
“Jamie has a rare breadth of experience from mine engineering to product planning that makes him tremendously adaptable to the context of different schedules and planning horizons. Combining this with advanced level of Excel and coding skills, a palpable curiosity and pragmatic approach to solving problems, he’s almost uniquely experienced for product and blend planning. I have found Jamie to consistently deliver to target at the same time as independently delivering genuinely material and sustainable improvements to tools and processes related to product blending and production planning.”
Dean Evans
Superintendent, Medium Term Planning
"MEC transformed our medium-density drill hole database into a geological block model using their internal neural network modelling software, which confirmed our understanding of the deposit. They then completed a pit optimisation that demonstrated the project's potential economic value, gave us confidence in its economic outlook, and helped prioritise future exploration and development activities."
Jonathan Downes
Managing Director
MEC were easy to deal with, had an expert panel of consultants for me to choose from, and provided an individual who nailed the brief of what I needed.
