Mining & Metals

Mining and mineral processing assets are exposed to some of the most aggressive mechanical and chemical degradation environments in heavy industry: high-solids slurry streams driving erosion-corrosion in pipelines, pumps, and hydrocyclones; acidic process leachates attacking structural steel and vessel linings; and remote site locations adding logistical complexity to every campaign. Vertix delivers inspection to ISO and ASME standards, calibrated to mining infrastructure — practical in execution, code-grade in methodology, and structured for remote and time-constrained operating environments.

Capabilities deployed:

• Pressure system and process piping inspections to ASME / API 510 / 570 and CSA B51
• Structural welding inspection to AWS D1.1 and CSA W59 on mining infrastructure
• Structural inspection campaigns at height via IRATA rope access
• PAUT, GWT, UT, MT, and PT to ISO and ASME standards on slurry, leach, and SX-EW circuits
• NACE/AMPP coating inspection on tanks, launders, and structural steel
• FFS (API 579) and RCFA on erosion-corrosion and acidic-attack failures
