AuraMine

Closure intelligence platform

Make better closure decisions before they become more expensive

AuraMine brings technical, environmental, financial and community evidence together so closure teams can identify emerging needs, compare intervention pathways and understand the cost of waiting.

The challenge

Fragmented evidence delays action and increases closure exposure.

Closure evidence is spread across historic plans, reports, monitoring systems, GIS platforms, consultant outputs and community records. Costs are often presented as a single figure with a percentage contingency, risks and land-use options are assessed separately, and long-term obligations are easy to underestimate. The result is slow, opaque decisions and repeated funding surprises.

  1. Fragmented evidence
  2. Compare options
  3. Find cost-efficient pathways
  4. Reduce future exposure

See why closure costs grow
One platform, two kinds of site

Built for active closure and legacy sites

Active mine closure

Plan closure while the mine is still operating. Test intervention pathways, understand how timing affects cost, and reduce the closure liability you carry forward.

Learn more about active mine closure

Legacy sites

For sites with no operator and no production income. Understand what is on the site, what it will cost to make safe and manage long term, and what it could become.

Learn more about legacy sites

The same evidence, liability and financial-planning engine underpins both.

How it helps a closure team

See what needs attention

Bring fragmented evidence into one confidence-rated view and focus on the issues that drive most of the cost and risk.

Understand the cost of waiting

See where delayed action may increase future cost or close off future options.

Compare whole-life pathways

Weigh capital, long-term operating burden, residual risk and community outcomes, not just the lowest upfront cost.

Our principles

  • Evidence first
  • Ranges, not single figures
  • Low information is not low liability
  • Safety before value
  • People make the judgements

We are looking for design partners and pilot sites

Work with AuraMine to test closure intelligence on a real site decision, at an operating mine or a legacy site.
