Mining
The mining industry involves complex operations, remote locations, high-value equipment, and significant health and safety risks. From exploration and drilling to extraction and processing, mining businesses must manage liabilities tied to environmental damage, equipment loss, site incidents, and regulatory compliance.
At Angelic Insurance, we provide general advice to help mining companies, contractors, and service providers explore insurance options such as public liability, property and equipment cover, business interruption, environmental liability, and management liability. We work with trusted insurers to compare policies that align with your project size, site conditions, and contractual requirements.
Whether you're working in open-pit operations, underground mines, or support services like maintenance and logistics, we help protect your business with coverage options suited to your sector.

Industry Challenges
Mining businesses face some of the most severe legal, operational, and reputational risks. Without tailored insurance, the consequences can be substantial:
Equipment Damage or Loss
Heavy machinery breakdowns or haul truck incidents can cause production delays and high repair costs. Equipment cover helps protect against these disruptions.
Worker Injuries and Site Incidents
Mining sites are high-risk environments for injuries and accidents. Public liability and management liability insurance help mitigate legal exposure.
Environmental Incidents
Land disturbance or contamination can result in costly fines and site remediation. Environmental liability cover helps you meet your duty of care and compliance obligations.
Delays from Natural Events or Industrial Action
Floods, fires, and labour disputes can shut down operations. Business interruption insurance helps maintain financial stability during downtime.
Contractual Risk and Compliance Gaps
Site operators and major contractors often require specific coverage levels. Without the right policy, you may be barred from site entry or tender opportunities.
