Description

The next Scottish Branch event will be a presentation by Deborah Thomas and Mike Williams of Land and Mineral Consulting, entitled "From Risk to Rock". They will explore real-world case studies from across the UK — highlighting how geological, geotechnical, and hydrogeological risks can be understood and managed effectively in active quarrying environments, underpinning quarrying decisions. The presentation will also explore the distinction between Regulatory Requirements and Advisory Actions, examining how choices in these areas can influence the balance between safety, efficiency, and sustainability within this high-risk industry."
