Bellevue Gold – Plant Monitoring
Culhig Surveying established a repeatable structural monitoring network at the Bellevue Gold processing plant.
Project Overview
Survey expertise in practice.
Culhig Surveying established a repeatable structural monitoring network at the Bellevue Gold processing plant. The works connected new site control to the existing Bellevue Mine Grid, installed permanent observation pillars and benchmarks, and established monitoring plates and 3D prism targets on the Mill building and Primary Crusher for reliable future movement surveys.
DELIVERY
Our role on the project.
- Validate existing control and transfer the Bellevue Mine Grid to the plant monitoring area.
- Establish the CHS001–CHS000 GNSS baseline and complete an adjusted closed traverse.
- Complete precise levelling through the control network and permanent benchmarks.
- Install and coordinate three permanent monitoring pillars around the plant.
- Install 15 level monitoring plates and observe them in three short closed loops.
- Install eight 3D L-prism targets across the Mill building and Primary Crusher.
- Capture the initial monitoring dataset and document repeatable observation procedures.
OUTCOME
Delivery that makes a difference.
Client feedback
“You and the team did a great job. We really appreciate everything you did—it was above and beyond what was expected.”
Bryce Orvad · Maintenance Planner · Bellevue Gold
- Achieved a 0.6 mm traverse closure over 799 m, equivalent to 1:1,268,282.
- Closed the 1.142 km control level run to 3.3 mm, within the specified tolerance.
- Established three coordinated pillars, two benchmarks and a complete monitoring target network.
- Recorded initial observations under documented environmental and operating conditions.
- Defined repeatable pillar backsights and level-loop routes for consistent future monitoring.
