Marina Medicals • Cardiff

Exploration & Mining Medicals

Doctor-led mining medicals, employer-specific PEMEs and deployment medicals for exploration, remote-site and international personnel, completed to the employer, project or mobilisation requirements.

What is an Exploration or Mining Employer Medical?

Mining, exploration and resource-sector employers may require pre-employment, periodic or deployment medical examinations before personnel are cleared for site or remote-area work.

The required assessment can vary according to the employer, project, role, country, remoteness of the worksite and mobilisation standard.

An exploration or mining PEME is completed to the employer or project specification rather than to one universal medical standard. Marina Medicals can work from the medical form, testing schedule or mobilisation requirements supplied.

Employer-Specific Exploration & Mining PEME

Medical assessment completed to the requirements of a mining company, exploration project, contractor or mobilisation provider.

The assessment may include clinical examination, investigations, functional testing and other requirements specified for the role or deployment.

Remote & International Deployment

Some mining and exploration roles involve remote locations, international travel or limited access to medical care.

Employer requirements may therefore include additional medical evidence or testing according to the destination, project and operational risk profile.

Please send the employer or project medical form, testing schedule and mobilisation requirements before booking where possible. We can then confirm the required assessment, investigations, appointment duration and fee.

ONE DOCTOR • ONE COORDINATED PATHWAY

Complex Mining Medicals — Coordinated From Start to Finish

Mining and exploration deployments can involve extensive employer-specific requirements rather than a single standard medical.

At Marina Medicals, your employer, project or mobilisation requirements are reviewed directly by the doctor responsible for your assessment and certification. Where possible, the required examinations and tests are completed during the same visit, with one point of contact throughout the process.

Depending on the specification, this may include physical examination, vaccination review, ECG, audiometry, spirometry, Chester Step Testing, blood sampling, drug and alcohol testing, colour-vision or greyscale assessment, focused mental-health or female-worker assessment, and other role-specific examinations.

Chest X-ray, laboratory testing and specialist investigations such as exercise ECG can also be coordinated where required.

Results are followed through to completion and employer documentation is checked and finalised once all requirements have been satisfied. Where the required external results are available promptly, complex medical packages can usually be completed within five working days.

What Can an Exploration & Mining PEME Include?

The exact assessment depends on the employer, project, role, destination and mobilisation requirements. Marina Medicals can complete the specified medical examination and arrange additional investigations or functional testing where required.
