Mining Report:

Dig up the facts on mine sites in Canada – quickly and affordably.  ERIS Geoscience Reports identify mining and mineral activities located within a 1.5km search radius of a subject site, including:

• Abandoned Mine sites, Mineral & Mining exploration history, Aggregate Inventory, Drill Holes, Oil & Gas Wells, and Waste Disposal Sites.

Waste Disposal Report:

Within Canada, there are numerous active or inactive waste disposal grounds used for municipal or private usage. Government regulations in Ontario stipulate that sites closed for more than 25 years should not be of concern, but what about those recently closed?
A Waste Disposal Report will provide information regarding waste disposal grounds located within a 500m radius of a subject site.

For more information on these new reports, contact Kathryn Shaw.
