Welcome to

Mine Survey Australia

We're a mine survey team out of Perth. Statutory appointments, underground and open pit crews, exploration and project teams — on site and ready to support your operation.

Statutory

WHS Authorised Mine Surveyors at Grade 1 and Grade 2, for appointments in WA.

Coverage

Underground and open pit surveyors mobilised to support your mining operation — short or long term.

A crew and the gear — vehicle, instruments, software — self-sufficient on site.

What we cover

Take a look at our capabilities

Most jobs are one of these. A few are all of them.

Statutory appointments

WHS Authorised Mine Surveyors at Grade 1 or Grade 2 to hold your appointment in WA — permanently, or as cover through leave, turnover and new project startup.

Underground development & production

Qualified, competent surveyors ready for boots-on-ground coverage to support your operation's development and production requirements.

Open pit mining & civil earthworks

The same coverage for pit and civil works — plus a project team ready to deliver turnkey across surface mining and civil jobs.

Exploration survey

A survey engagement rather than a placement. We come to site, mark up and pick up drill holes, hold the control network, and carry out the exploration work.

Project services & department support

Deswik CAD builds, optimisation and clean-up, data management and reporting, delivered off site. Plus department audits, mentoring and survey documentation for operations building or rebuilding a survey function.

The difference

The surveyor turns up.

Our surveyors are qualified, experienced and competent on the gear before they get to site. You are getting a surveyor, not a training job.

How it works

Two ways to engage us

Same people either way. The difference is whose gear and whose systems.

Labour hire

On your roster, your systems, your gear. Casual placements on an 8:6 or a 4:3, from a single swing through to long-term coverage.

Our people come equipped with survey hardware, software and a mine-spec vehicle. Self-sufficient, ready to support your operational requirements.
