Experience the benefits of applying BME's Public Miner Database to identify global mining industry opportunities. BME has developed its own database to quickly identify opportunities for different types of Customers. Applications include developing of a shortlist of prospective sales, investment, or merger & acquisition targets. The overview includes public mining companies listed on 40 stock exchanges in 30 countries and is also used to provide a management summary of how public miners are strategically positioned. Based on popular demand the database is now provided as a product.

Operational forecasts for the mining & metals industry

The financial models BME creates generally aim to develop, forecast, and transfer insights in a structured manner. Such insights can be used to support the valuation of a project or business. On a more day-to-day basis technical-economic simulation & optimization is used to optimize performance, explore business-models, optimize process parameters, estimate viability of services or products, or to investigate & mitigate risk. Whatever Customer intent may be, it is essential the result is clear, reproducible, and verifiable. BME develops generic models that are transparent and based on the best practice principles BME recognizes and describes in its financial modelling guidelines.
