How drones are transforming mine closure and rehabilitation

As an environmental engineer, Shaun works with mine closure and remediation projects. Currently, he’s working with the contaminated site closure team at an Australian diamond mine—helping to restore and prepare the land for Traditional Owners.

As an environmental scientist and remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) pilot, Kieran completes field investigations and desktop research in natural and contaminated study areas in mining, defence, terrestrial, and coastal settings in Australia.

As GIS team leader, Amy coordinates spatial analysts working with mapping products, spatial data management, web platforms, and analysis and field apps across infrastructure, transport, and environmental services—and oversees our drone program.

David provides environmental engineering services for mine closure and remediation projects, often in remote locations. He strongly supports consultation with traditional owners on these projects.
