The Sudbury Basin is the second largest nickel district in the world. In 2005, Vale Ontario Operations retained SRK to provide structural geological support to their Sudbury operations comprising six operating mines in the district: Totten, Creighton, Stobie, Garson, Coleman, and Copper Cliff Mines. SRK provides Vale with structural inputs to geotechnical studies, mine seismicity, and near-mine exploration, as well as structural training courses for exploration and production staff.
