ON SITE INSPECTIONS

Whitfield Minerals Managers, Supervisors and Sales personnel conduct
regular inspection and audits of Aquacrete products and equipment both on
the surface and underground. This ensures that high standards and ongoing
standards of construction, durability, integrity and safety of

PRE-INSTALLATION ASSESSMENT

Whitfield minerals can provide assistance prior to commencing installation.
Overpressure ratings, roadway conditions and dimensions can be assessed.

Specific information can then be analysed and inputed into the appropriate
computer model for ventilation control devices, resulting in specific
recommendations on thickness and other actions necessary to guarantee
structural integrity. If required, the recommendations can be ratified by
our independent structural engineers in the form of an approval certificate.

Occupational Health and Safety Acts and Regulations.

Australian State Health and Safety Acts and Regulations are also used in the
compliance process.

Whitfield Minerals base their operations on a risk based approach. The
company has in place a Safety Management Plan covering safety, environment

All company operations are supported by Safe Working Procedures which can be
