Critical raw materials begin with geology
I specialise in sedimentary-hosted and structurally controlled mineral systems, with a particular focus on critical and strategic metals.
These systems are laterally extensive, geologically complex, and highly variable, requiring integrated geological and geochemical approaches. These include:
Resource Characterisation & Geological Modelling
Ore body character, geometry and spatial distribution
Geochemical Vectoring
Identifying mineralisation pathways
Structural & Stratigraphic Controls
Understanding how deposits form
Resource Variability & Uncertainty
Assessing distribution, grade and risk
