Ground Protection for Mining
Why Ground Protection?
Ground Nurse mats are the silent backbone of any mining operation. Our mats create a steady surface for heavy machinery that prevents accidents and improves productivity, regardless of weather conditions.
No more delays
Ground Nurse mats are engineered for the extremes of mining. They prevent the earth from caving under weight, keep your machines steady, and turn weather delays into a thing of the past. Quick to deploy and built to last, these mats mean business—your business—uninterrupted, safe, and sound.
Ground Nurse gives you a reliable platform that improves your operation’s productivity and safeguards your site’s future. Keep your focus on extraction – we’ll handle the protection.

Real Insights: Ground Nurse in Mining
Isn’t it time you discovered how Ground Nurse can enhance your mining operations?
Ground Stabilisation for a Mineral Sands
Ground Nurse was engaged by the project lead of a mineral sands mine in regional Victoria to support long-term ground stability across their site. The operation required approximately 2000 ground mats to ensure safe, reliable access for vehicles and machinery throughout the year.
Working collaboratively with the client, Ground Nurse developed a detailed supply and delivery plan tailored to the project’s scale and timeline. During this process, it became clear that traditional stillages, which typically hold 30 mats, would create unnecessary delays and logistical inefficiencies.
To solve this, Ground Nurse engineered custom stillages capable of holding 90 mats each. This innovative approach significantly increased load capacity, reduced handling time, and streamlined transport to site.
The client’s project manager highlighted the value of this solution, noting that the improved efficiency and thoughtful design directly contributed to the project’s success. The outcome delivered clear benefits for both the mine operation and Ground Nurse, demonstrating our commitment to practical innovation and reliable project execution.
