Our UK based Minerals team have considerable depth of knowledge, insight and day-to-day understanding of the valuation methods and approaches appropriate for mineral bearing land. We provided important input into the RICS Global Professional Standard - Valuation of mineral bearing land and waste management sites.
Whether acting for landowners, mineral companies, lending institutions, local authorities, or statutory undertakers, our team delivers accurate and timely valuations. We handle a spectrum of work, from larger portfolio valuations for loan security purposes to informal advice in relation to individual properties, demonstrating our versatility in addressing the needs of diverse stakeholders and assisting in any investment/management decisions.
The UK minerals sector is dominated by 5 main operators of which 4 are global players. We act for all but retain long established contracts with 3 of them, making us the leading advisors in the market. The team have historic experience with valuing assets across Europe, the States and Asia albeit this work stream dried up in the late 90’s / early 00’s following a change in financial reporting standards. Current instructions are therefore restricted to the UK Based operators and the team are excited by the opportunity of offering a global service to the minerals sector.
Our team also provide a full suite on consultancy services including business rates/property tax advice, compensation advice, expert witness, lease consultancy and acquisition/disposal advice.
