Accurate and Timely Valuations 

Pickles Mining focuses on the ‘yellow metals’ mining sector, in which we have valued billions of dollars of equipment throughout Australia and the Asia Pacific.

We value a diverse range of equipment, including offshore and onshore drilling, civil construction, transport, the oil and gas sector, quarry and manufacturing and offer independent valuation for everything from the smallest toolbox to large barges.

Relying on our team’s expertise, the company offers advice to financiers, government departments, multinational companies, and insolvency companies on equipment valuations. Part of the reason we are able to do this in a timely manner is our use of efficient in-house communication and large network of industry contacts.

In order to perform valuations, our valuers must have passed the USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) exam successfully. Pickles Mining uses this metric due to USPAP’s reputation as a trusted valuer’s qualification that is used internationally to establish high standards on valuations that are concise, accurate, bias-free and without contingent fees.

Due to our global network, Pickles Mining understands on a very specific level which market needs a certain piece of equipment at that given time. We are willing to travel to value equipment if needed and always seek to provide the greatest return for our clients through our global network of buyers. Pickles is a Panel Valuer for companies such as Australia New Zealand Banking Group Ltd (ANZ), Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), and National Australia Bank (NAB).
