VBKOM was commissioned by one of South Africa’s leading mining and minerals companies to give Mine Planning and Design training to a group of their senior members.

The odds of succeeding as a “start-up” company in South Africa are stacked against whoever may be brave enough to venture down this path.

We are ecstatic to announce the securing of our BBBEE level 1 certification.

Geological mapping is a reliable and cost-effective technique used to reduce geological and mining uncertainty, to avoid loss and assist with Health and Safety.

In 2008, five engineers turned a dream into reality. We now walk this journey together with our team and our clients.

At VBKOM, we believe it is our purpose and mission to improve our clients’ lives. However, to make a difference, we first needed to look at how we operate as a company.

Previously, we discussed how in order to make a difference in our client’s lives, we, as a company, needed to do some introspection regarding how we operate.

Both VBKOM’S projects and clients are supported by our in-house, customised Project Management & Support team, led by Netterine Venter.

In this article, we would like you to meet our Geological Consulting team. Headed by Paul Obermeyer, and supported by Wendy Keiller.
