Six ways we help explorers, developers and investors. Every engagement is principal-led and built on a mineral systems framework.

01
Project generation & acquisition
Regional screening that finds under-explored ground and turns it into a ranked list of tenement applications.
State-wide and belt-scale screening built on a mineral systems framework: source, pathway, trap and preservation.
Compilation and review of open-file (WAMEX) exploration data, historical drilling and government geoscience.
Prospectivity ranking that weighs technical merit against acquisition cost, tenure shape and commodity appeal.
Tenement application strategy, graticular block design and land-access constraints.
02
Technical due diligence
Independent reviews of projects, packages and data rooms for acquisition, farm-in or investment decisions.
Data-room triage and full technical reviews, delivered as a synthesis deck with supporting appendices.
Assessment of geology, mineralisation, historical work, data quality and remaining upside.
Red flags, value drivers and peer benchmarking in a clear recommendation.
Support for earn-in, joint venture and acquisition negotiations.
03
Targeting & interpretation
Integrated geological, structural, regolith and geochemical interpretation that ends in drill-ready targets.
Geological and structural interpretation built on the best available magnetics, gravity and EM.
Regolith-aware interpretation of surface and drill geochemistry (ioGAS).
2D and 3D modelling of lithology and mineralised envelopes (Leapfrog).
Target generation, ranking and drill hole planning.
04
Exploration management
Programme design, budgeting and field execution, from first-pass sampling to diamond drilling.
Exploration programme design, budgets and expenditure tracking.
Aircore, RC and diamond drilling supervision; soil, lag and stream sampling programmes.
Site and field team management, including remote camps.
Mentoring and training of geological teams.
05
Reporting & compliance
ASX announcements, JORC Code reporting reviews and technical content for investors and boards.
Drafting and review of ASX exploration announcements against the JORC Code (2012).
Competent Person statements where the work and experience requirements are met.
Technical sections for investor presentations, prospectuses and board papers.
Annual technical reporting and tenement expenditure reporting.
06
Business development
Deal sourcing and technical support for companies building or reshaping an exploration portfolio.
Identification and screening of earn-in, farm-in and acquisition opportunities.
Technical input to deal terms, work programmes and expenditure commitments.
Portfolio reviews: what to keep, what to drop and what to add.
Liaison with vendors, joint venture partners and stakeholders.
What you receive
Clear answers, with the working shown.
Reviews are delivered in a format built for decision-makers and checkable by technical teams.
01
Synthesis deck
The answer first: findings, ranking and recommendation in a concise presentation for boards and investment committees.
02
Technical appendices
Separate, in-depth decks for each interpretation layer (geophysics, regolith, geochemistry, mineral systems analysis) so the reasoning can be checked.
03
GIS package
Interpretations, targets and recommended tenure as QGIS-ready layers, with sources documented.
04
Ranked targets & programme
Drill-ready targets with priorities, proposed holes, budget and the data that would change the ranking.
Method
Screen, rank, secure, test.
The same discipline applies whether the brief is a state-wide search for new ground or a single data room.
01
Screen
Start at the scale of the mineral system. Regional geophysics, geology, geochemistry and open-file data show where the right ingredients come together.
02
Rank
Score each area on technical merit, data quality, tenure cost and access, so effort goes where the odds are best.
03
Secure
Design the land position and assemble the data package: tenure, heritage and environmental constraints, and historical results.
04
Test
Turn the interpretation into drill-ready targets with a programme and budget, and supervise the work on the ground.
Commodities & terrains
Where the experience lies.
Archaean and Proterozoic terrains of Western Australia, with project evaluation experience worldwide.

Engagement
Ways to work together.
Scoped reviews
Fixed-scope technical reviews and due diligence with an agreed deliverable and timetable.
Day-rate consulting
Flexible geological support for programmes, interpretation and reporting.
Retained advisory
Ongoing technical and business development support for exploration teams and boards.
Confidentiality agreements are standard. Competent Person sign-off is provided only where the work and the relevant experience meet the requirements of the JORC Code.
