The official inauguration of the Skouries Copper-Gold Mine in Chalkidiki, Greece, on October 8, 2026, in the presence of the Prime Minister of Greece, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, marks a significant milestone for one of Europe’s major copper and gold mining investments.

At OMIKRON KAPPA CONSULTING SA, we are proud to have contributed to this landmark project through extensive engineering studies and technical design services over many years.

Our involvement in the Skouries Mining Project has encompassed several critical areas of engineering, including:

• Geotechnical Engineering: Ground investigations, slope stability assessments, excavation and embankment design, and foundation engineering for major industrial facilities.
• Mining and Industrial Infrastructure: Engineering studies for the Skouries processing plant, associated earthworks, retaining structures and supporting infrastructure.
• Tailings Management Facilities: Hydraulic and geotechnical engineering, dam design, stability assessments, risk analyses and technical studies for tailings management infrastructure.
• Mine Access Infrastructure: Technical and permitting studies for underground mine access systems, shafts, ramps and associated road infrastructure. The scale and complexity of the Skouries project demonstrate the importance of multidisciplinary engineering expertise, rigorous technical design and long-term collaboration in delivering major industrial investments.

For OMIKRON KAPPA CONSULTING SA, this milestone is particularly meaningful. It reflects years of engineering work, technical dedication and the contribution of our multidisciplinary teams to one of Greece’s most significant mining developments.

We are proud to see a project to which we have contributed reach this important milestone.
