WHS Due Diligence
for Gold Exploration

Built for the transition from exploration to mine.

WA mining is seeing investors back projects earlier than ever. Capital flows to projects that can manage risk while delivering growth. That’s why governance can’t afford to lag behind activity.

What we offer

Compliance services for early-stage mining operations.

As exploration projects move toward production, officer obligations under WA’s Work Health and Safety Act 2020 don’t wait for first ore. We help you build the systems, controls, and evidence that demonstrate due diligence before regulators come looking. Whether you’re starting from scratch or reviewing what’s already in place, we tailor every engagement to fit your operations, obligations and stage of development.

The core system. End-to-end development of a compliant MSMS, aligned to WA WHS (Mines) Regulations and built for your operation.

Mine Safety Management Systems

Building compliance into your growth

As exploration projects transition to production, WA mine operators are required to implement a compliant Mine Safety Management System (MSMS), including Principal Mining Hazard Management Plans (PMHMPs). We help you meet these obligations with clarity, structure, and practical tools that work without slowing momentum.

Why it matters

When activity accelerates, risk rises just as quickly.

Exploration environments are inherently high-risk: remote, contractor-driven, and rapidly mobilised. As your project scales toward production, the complexity of managing those risks grows with it.

Company officers carry a personal duty to ensure due diligence is exercised across the business. Regulators don’t lower their expectations during a boom, they increase scrutiny.

A well-designed WHS system does more than achieve compliance. It builds confidence with investors, boards, and regulators, and above all, keeps your people safe.

Proven success stories

From advisory to implementation, our services integrate seamlessly into your operations, delivering practical, measurable outcomes across every stage of your WHS journey.

I engaged Epigroup in early 2017, prior to embarking on a rapid transition from an exploration site, to the full-scale infrastructure construction and development of underground and open pit mines. We needed necessary safety systems and personnel to ensure we could safely execute this transition. I remember telling Jake to ‘assume we have nothing’… Epigroup integrated in to our organisation and their ownership of the task was second to none.
