The brief

Greenfield ground in Mufumbwe means there is no prior baseline to lean on and the receiving environment is largely intact. The programme was therefore weighted towards field data collection and towards land access, in a district where customary tenure and livelihood dependence on woodland resources shape every siting decision.

Scope of work

  1. 01Ecological baseline across miombo woodland and drainage lines
  2. 02Water resource inventory for exploration and process demand
  3. 03Land use, customary tenure and land access assessment
  4. 04Community consultation with traditional leadership
  5. 05Progressive rehabilitation planning for exploration disturbance
  6. 06Cumulative impact screening for the wider licence area
