Founded 1994 · Exploration and mining project assessment

Before you invest
more.

Before investing at all or putting in more, get an independent second opinion on a mining or exploration project. A focused fatal-flaw assessment reviews the mineral economics, material risks and evidence gaps before the next funding decision.

01 — The decision

Start with the decision, evidence and open questions.

We frame the review around the decision ahead, the information available and the questions still open. Scope, inputs, deliverables and fee are agreed before work begins.

02 / Connected stages

Where is the project now?

Technical evidence, operating context and project economics move together. The right question depends on the stage and the decision in front of you.

Exploration and target definition

Frame the target, geological setting and the evidence that can inform the next decision.

View exploration and geophysics

Map the coverage and limits of existing sampling and surveys, then identify which validation or field check could reduce uncertainty.
