Location:
Gaza Province, Mozambique
GIBB’s Responsibilities:
As development partner, GIBB provided technical and financial evaluation of Massingir Dam in the Gaza Province of Mozambique. This included initial technical studies such as water availability to feed into the development of project implementation agreements and purchasing and off-taker agreements.
Location:
Maputo Province, Mozambique
GIBB’s Responsibilities:
GIBB acted as the transaction advisor for the project.
Location:
Zambezia Province, Mozambique
GIBB’s Responsibilities:
The Highland African Mining Company (HAMC) designated GIBB (with KLM Consulting Services) to provide a study into assuring the water supply to the Marropino Mine Process Plant. The water supports mining operations delivering 500 000 tons of ore containing tantalite per annum.
The aim was to determine the most economical and practical water supply system. GIBB investigated the option of upgrading all existing vandalised and dilapidated pipes, canals and dams versus the feasibility of construction of a new 3 km long pipeline.

Location:
Tete Province, Mozambique
GIBB’s Responsibilities:
The Minas De Revuboe mine is located in the Moatize Basin and provides a world class coal mine producing coking coal and thermal coal for the global market, with the potential to process up to 17 Mpta.
GIBB’s scope included the survey, demining, railway line and water management elements of the project. Key features included topographical surveys, general mine action assessment and demining. Water studies included hydrology, flood hydrology, sedimentation, geohydrology, and groundwater and surface water quality studies.
The engineering components included design of water storage dams, bulk water conveyance system, flood water diversion canal design, railway bridges and culverts, relocation design, signalling and telecommunications design, railway balloon and yard lighting design. Train operations and a rolling stock study were also completed.
Location:
Tete Province, Mozambique
GIBB’s Responsibilities:
The Mozambique government appointed GIBB to conduct a feasibility study for the geotechnical aspects of the Estima Coal Mine Project, 90 km North West of Tete in Mozambique.
As a green field site, GIBB explored the infrastructure development to support the open-pit mining operation. The areas identified for geotechnical investigation scope of work included:
Mining Infrastructure Area.
Coal Preparation Plant site.
ROM pad.
Conveyors from ROM pad to CPP.
Materials investigation.
The investigation involved carrying out a desk study, overview mapping, site reconnaissance and field investigations to determine the geotechnical parameters and recommendations for earthworks, building materials and the design of practical foundation solutions.
