Mining and Geotechnical Engineering

Insight provides a range of consulting and training services for clients in the Mining and Geotechnical Engineering sector.

Mining engineers plan and supervise the processes involved with extracting minerals from mines. They are often heavily involved in developing new mines, including assessing whether a mineral deposit can be profitably mined, and also research new techniques and processes to improve the efficiency and safety of mines. Geotechnical engineers analyse and advise on the most effective way to guard and maintain physical structures, such as soil and rock formations and groundwater deposits, whilst also planning and developing building and construction projects. Data science and mathematical modelling are needed to extract and communicate deep insights from data on the current state of the physical environment and the expected impact from different processing strategies. This includes monitoring and controling physical conditions, and identify and manage risks.

Insight has significant experience with the science and engineering sector. Insight CEO, Dr Mark Griffin, serves on the Gold Coast committee for Engineers Australia. Mark holds a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science and Mathematics), Bachelor of Computer Engineering (Honours), is a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, and a Certified Professional with the Australian Computer Society. Insight is also a Microsoft Business Partner.
