Anyone visiting the heart of the city of Hamburg, HafenCity (Harbour City), usually looks at the impressive new and old buildings – or at the wide water. But it is also worth taking a look at the ground. Only those who master the skill can build in a harbour – with sand, storm surges and an inrush of water.

Water is the basis of our lives. Rivers and inland waters are the natural habitat for flora and fauna. At the same time, they are traffic and transportation routes and popular areas for leisure and recreation. However, flowing and inland waters also harbor dangers. Flooding can have devastating effects. We preserve natural resources and design them in such a way that they can be used safely.

We can only protect what we know: Geohydraulic measurements and investigations into groundwater conditions are an important basis for hydrogeological exploration.

There are no rivers in the capital of Kosovo. The Priština, its namesake, and the Vellusha disappeared in the 1950s – filled up with rubbish and soil. Rivers that did not disappear from the face of the earth are often contaminated in the Balkans – as are many soils. The reason: carelessness or negligent and ignorant handling of harmful substances as well as massive damage caused by war.

The materiality analysis is a key tool for identifying the relevant issues for sustainable corporate governance. By focusing on material aspects, we create transparency and promote responsible decision-making.

The use and design after the end of raw material extraction must be taken into account as early as the development of a deposit. The planning design of the post-mining landscape must ensure long-term safety, aftercare-free and sustainable use of the site after the mining process. When planning, we take into account geotechnical, hydrogeological, technical and landscape planning factors. From this, we develop a complex remediation plan, individually for you.

Deposits are indispensable sources for the continued existence of entire branches of industry. They counteract the scarcity of raw materials. Raw materials are very different – and so are their deposits. The exploration of a deposit is the basis for successful raw material extraction. We offer geological expertise combined with many years of experience and technical exploration services. This guarantees you reliable planning, support and evaluation during exploration.
The evaluation of a deposit by means of a pre-feasibility study and bankable feasibility study in accordance with international standards enables the mining investor to make a well-founded decision about his financial commitment. An important criterion is the evaluation of reserves. Other decision criteria include technical feasibility, ecological and social impact on the environment and legal approval aspects.

We use the results of the deposit exploration to develop technical extraction concepts and plan the details of raw material extraction. We prepare approval procedures for the extraction of deposits and support the approval process in an advisory capacity.

Monitoring in waste disposal and recycling management ensures that all processes run safely and sustainably. Waste disposal and recycling processes are continuously monitored to guarantee environmental protection and efficiency.
