360 EEC Joins New Mining Strategic Alliance

Triton Environmental Inc. (Triton), 360 Engineering & Environmental Consulting Ltd. (360 EEC), and NewFields Canada Inc. (NewFields Canada), are pleased to announce a strategic alliance to provide regulatory-ready, community-trusted mine closure plans to mine owners across Canada. Unlike standard closure plan processes, often offered by large consulting firms, these three firms seamlessly provide the environmental insight, engineering confidence, geochemical analysis, and social engagement necessary for mine owners to build a sustainable mine closure plan with a niche firm experience.

“With the addition of geochemical management to a mine closure plan, progressive mining firms have access to essential data to model and design long term mine waste and water management solutions far beyond the life of the mine,” explains Leon Botham, President of NewFields Canada. “This long term approach to sustainability is precisely why we built a team of geochemists from around the world, with decades of experience in mine closure planning.”

This strategic alliance was inspired by Nelson Debogorski, Director of Mining at 360 EEC,  and Roald Strand, Geochemistry Technical Lead at NewFields Canada, while discussing how to improve mine waste stability and water quality management through geochemical analysis in mine closure plans. Due to a shortage of senior geochemistry leaders among large consulting firms, Strand and Debogorski approached Ian Emerson of Triton to build an alliance to allow mining firms to better plan their mine closures with one team.

“The intention is to help mining firms in Canada easily integrate geochemistry analysis into their existing programs to build stronger closure plans, that make sense for indigenous communities, stakeholder communities, economies, and the environment.” Explains Ian Emerson, Director of Strategic Accounts at Triton.

“Our alliance provides a strong alternative to large consulting firms in the mining sector, combining the scale and depth of established experience with the agility and focus of specialized consultancies, under one contract,” said Debogorski.

Under the new alliance, each firm continues to operate independently, while opening the door to work as one team, managing mine closure planning, from indigenous and community engagement to revegetation, with greater confidence in mine waste and water quality management.
