I have had a wide range of experience in both hard rock mineral and bulk commodity projects, often in a senior management position. My experience in Indonesia has led to an exposure of a wide range of mineral types and mineralisation styles, often in remote areas and harsh conditions.I am literate in most computer systems and software, database management, GIS implementation, remote sensing interpretation, geochemistry, project management and financial management in operational and exploration environments.An understanding of the mechanics of mineral formation; particular skills in hydrothermal ore deposits; structural control on ore formation; mineralisation vectoring through alteration zoning and geochemical signatures; mineralisation in deeply weathered terrains; tectonic terranes and the relationship to mineralisation styles; modes of mineralisation occurrence; regional metallogenic concepts. Good foundation of knowledge in basin development with respect to sedimentary deposits, erosional residues and secondary enrichment.My goals are to continue to develop optimum systems for the discovery and exploitation of mineralised systems with a particular reference to sound geological practice and professional integrity. I have a strong belief that the best exploration equipment comprises a pair of boots, hand lens and geological hammer.Specialties: Exploration management, project management, mineral exploration, database, GIS, resource estimation, scoping studies, feasibility studies, coal, gold, base metals, nickel, iron ore, manganese, industrial minerals
