About CS-2

CS-2 helps its clients to find, define, model, evaluate, develop and exploit its mineral resource assets to maximise their value.

CS-2 stands for Common Sense Consulting Services (“CSCS”) and was born in 1995 out of our perception that the industry was hungry for some common sense. The industry has seen some highs and lows since then but the need for common sense remains.

Our original focus on integrating the content and relationships between various perspectives and disciplines, from technical (e.g. geology, engineering, metallurgy, environment, systems etc.) to non-technical (e.g. people, relationships etc.) has become the industry norm for leading companies in the industry. Whilst we still remain committed to that intent we have also been evolving by integrating more business methods and models, analytics, complexity science and sensemaking into our approach and capabilities. As such we remain “well ahead of the pack”.

We have been based in Perth, WA since 2003 but continue to undertake assignments nationally and across the globe.

Shouldn’t you be using common sense too?
