After completing numerous Mineral Resource estimates for multiple commodities, they all have one thing in common – no estimate is the same. Each project has its own challenges and quirks. This talk is not about the estimation but instead about overcoming some challenging situations throughout the Mineral Resource process.

 

About the Presenter

John graduated with an honours degree in geology from the University of Melbourne and has since gained over 17 years’ experience. He has extensive experience in mine geology, resource estimation as well as project development and exploration. John started Conarco Consulting in 2015 and is currently a Principal consultant for Mining Plus. Prior to this, he was Principal Geologist for Unity Mining responsible for all mine geology, Mineral Resource estimation and Ore Reserve processes across three projects. He has also worked at other world famous mineral provinces such as Olympic Dam, Broken Hill and Cobar. In addition, he was a director of Jacaranda Minerals, a privately owned company exploring for oil and gas in the NT.
