Minerals & Metals
Mining is at our core in Satarla. Our founders (Sarah, Tankiso, and Laura) all met while working for one of the world’s largest mining companies. They saw the benefit that truly integrated, enterprise-wide risk management can bring to an organisation that wants to be sustainable yet also provide a profit to its shareholders. As our team has grown, it has maintained deep experience in the metals and mining sector, and we have a passion for enabling more responsible exploration, extraction, and use of raw materials, through our extensive range of services.
Raw Materials
At Satarla, the team has a wealth of of both technical and practical expertise in the mining and natural resources sectors, based on decades spent working out what does and does not work to make the sector more sustainable. These experiences are drawn from around the world and are now shared through consulting, training and research. Satarla team members are often called on as trusted advisors to work with governments, civil society organisations, investors, mining companies, and as experts in other consultancies. We will always give you our honest opinion and help to ensure that where raw materials are extracted from the ground, it is done so in the most responsible and sustainable way possible, allowing for future generations to benefit from the natural wealth, rather than be harmed by it.
Sustainability at the centre
We believe that the use of sustainability practices within mining is a crucial component of modern mining and resource management. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that the extraction and utilisation of raw materials are conducted with the highest environmental and social standards. We work closely with our clients to develop strategies that minimise footprints, promote the wellbeing of local communities, and engage all stakeholders, to ensure truly equitable practice – and drive improvements to the bottom line.
Risk management
Mining and raw materials extraction are inherently risky endeavours. At Satarla, we specialise in identifying, assessing, and managing these risks, be they potential opportunities or threats. Our tailored risk management frameworks ensure that our clients can navigate the complexities of the industry with confidence, securing both their operations and their reputations. We pride ourselves on the use of practical tools and techniques, which work from the boardroom to the core shed, enabling tangible results.
Research, innovation and technology
The raw materials sector is evolving, and so are we. Satarla leverages cutting-edge technology and innovative methodologies to enhance efficiency and productivity in mining operations. From data analytics to automation, we integrate advanced solutions – augmented by our deep understanding of the sector itself, and what really works – to optimise the extraction, processing, and distribution of raw materials.
A world of responsible extraction.
