Who are we?

Inspirit Consulting is a boutique technical mining consultancy providing client-tailored solutions and advice through a focused, motivated and engaged team of professionals.

We were founded in 2016 in the beautiful city of Adelaide, rated the 3rd most liveable city in the world in 2021 (details here).

Mine Planning

Our core strength is in strategic mine planning services. However, we have a broad range of experience in mine design and technical studies as well. Our experience covers both underground and open-pit operations, across a wide variety of different commodities.

We work closely with our associates to enable us to deliver a broader range of services across the entire mining value chain, from exploration to mine closure.

Our Principal Mining Engineer, Brett Dunstone is a passionate advocate for innovative mining technology, particularly with respect to the decarbonisation of the mining industry.

As such, along with our traditional mine planning services we have now branched out into green services.

Green Technology

We work with experienced partners (such as Mayhew Performance) to evaluate the costs and benefits of implementing new green technologies on mine sites. Our core focus is currently on battery-electric vehicles for underground mines, however this will broaden as technologies develop.

Mining Green Podcast

Mining Green discusses the decarbonisation of the mining industry. Covering the technologies that will enable the transition (think battery-electric vehicles, green hydrogen, and renewable energy for a start), the challenges that need to be overcome, the benefits that will arise, and how the mining industry can lead the way towards a cleaner future. Please get in touch if you would like to be on the show.
