Read the latest from our team on the ground along with geotechnical and geophysical news here.
It’s been a big year for a lot of people in a lot of sectors, certainly in ours.
There has been lots of highs, a fair few lows, and we couldn’t have done it without you.
So we’d like to take this opportunity to THANK YOU and wish you a very safe & happy Christmas and holiday break.
We are closing off this Friday 20th and we’ll see you back on Mon 13th January, ready for what the new year has in store.

In the final Philippine Resources Journal for the year we’re zeroing in on the power that Geophysics brings to modern engineering.
In this article by leading Geologist Tom Grace, we explain how Geophysics has evolved into a leading discipline, providing invaluable insights in geotechnical, civil and mining engineering.
Tom’s article sheds light on the benefit of geophysical methods applied to engineering. His aim is to build an appreciation for geophysics and highlight the potential to significantly reduce risk, cost and schedule through proper ground profiling.

RDCL are proud of our ongoing commitment to the mining sector in the Philippines and its contributions to local projects, and bringing our specialist skillset to the table.

Thanks for sharing RDCL!
It was a privilege to be at the 70th Annual National Mine Safety and Environment Conference (ANMSEC) in Baguio City recently.
A contingent from our Philippines team (Eriko, Kaye & Julius) were joined by Cam for the massive four day event, where we were grateful to network and share knowledge with others in the sector.
70 years is quite a record and there was a lot of buzz.
Special thanks to Merianjay from the Philippine Resources Journal for the many introductions and positive support of our team, and to Philippine Mine Safety and Environment Association for putting on the event.

Thank you so much, RDCL team, for the kind mention! It has always been an honor to support and collaborate with your amazing team. Seeing you all at the 70th ANMSEC was a highlight, and I’m so proud of the work we’ve accomplished together over the years. Here’s to continuing our partnership and celebrating the incredible contributions you bring to the mining sector! 😊🫶
At RDCL, the conversation around skills shortages is ever-evolving. Over the last 16 years, we have recognised the pressing need to rethink how we approach our workforce and nurture talent from within the Geotechnical Consultancy field.
In this article, Steve Harris, the Field Business Manager for our Ground Investigations crew, shares how RDCL embraces skill-building, diversity and cultural values to cultivate the new generation of skilled professionals.

Big mihi to Steve for contributing to this article and to our team on the ground, showing how it can be done.

It was an honour to be formally welcomed onto Omāhu Marae last week, after a number of good kōrero with Te Piringa Hapū in the preceding weeks around the Upper Raupare / Chesterhope Stopbank project.
The Ngaruroro River winds its way through various different hapū areas along the stretch of river, so it is important that we engage with all local iwi partners before we go and conduct our testing on the land.
As kaitiaki of the whenua many iwi contributors were able to provide us critical insights into the ground conditions and tikanga. Not the least of which included learning of an old urupa site beside the stopbank, helping us to ensure diggers can steer clear.
At RDCL we know that partnering and consulting with tangata whenua early on is key to projects moving smoothly, in a way that benefits the future of the land. Much like engaging Geotech in the early stages of a project, consultation helps to identify and minimise risks from the outset, and greatly increases the chances of long-term project success.
Thank you to all of the people who have had korero with us leading into this project and to Omāhu Marae iwi for the invitation and welcome at their wharenui Kahukuranui. It was a privilege and we are pleased iwi can be more familiarised with the RDCL team and know what we’re doing out on the whenua.
Thanks also go to Hawke’s Bay Regional Council for working with us on this project, and the facilitation support from Te Ngahere and Uehā Environmental, to help enable these open conversations.
