History

“Prior to launching KRC and working as the General Manager of a large business unit, I was often frustrated by the fact that I didn't have a ‘clone’ of myself to go and investigate problem business units or carry out in-depth analysis. KRC Mining Consultants was formed to provide this service to other GM's, Operations Managers and Site Managers, in the mining, cement and aggregates industries.”
—Steve Franklin
Managing Director of KRC Mining Consultants



In 2000 Steve Franklin formed KRC Mining Consultants in Melbourne, Australia. In the years since, KRC has been providing consulting services for over 50 mining, cement and aggregates firms across Australia, Africa and the Asia Pacific region. KRC's expertise and unique approach to real-world problems—with workable and observable time and money-saving results, has earned the company the respect of many professionals in these industries.



“I have had experience with many leading and large global consulting firms — I would put KRC up against any of those groups for a materials extraction or handling assignment.”
— Bernie Cooper, CEO Silcar

“Very significant cost savings and productivity improvement.”
— Cassie Arnold, Mine Manager Cement Australia Railton
