Lake Isabella, CA. Dam restoration project.

I lead an exploration team in Portugal, searching for copper, lead, zinc, and precious metals. In the Iberian Pyrite Belt, I have been responsible for managing a joint venture between AVRUPA Minerals and Antofagasta Minerals S.A. that has made two discoveries over the life of the project. I am also leading exploration on several other large properties.

Geological mapping of the Selac license, just north of the giant Stan Terg deposit. Regional porphyry exploration in eastern-most Kosovo, along the border shared with Serbia.( http://avrupaminerals.com/projects/kosovo/license_overview/ --figures 3 and 4)

Geologist with the main task to log deep drill holes from the Copper Creek EDM vein deposit, an end member porphyry system. I was able to assist in the early stages of vein paragenesis and had the opportunity to view several thousand meters of core.

Tucson, Arizona, US

While consulting for Animas, I primarily worked on the Santa Gertrudis sediment hosted gold project in Sonora, Mexico. This work included mapping of roughly 100 square kilometers at 1:2000 and 1:5000 scales. We utilized outcrop mapping of rock types, as well as alteration intensities to delineate several phases of drill targeting(.

Tucson, Arizona, US

My primary project while with the survey was to map earth fissures. I worked on the Apache Junction, Chandler Heights, Mesa, Scottsdale, Luke, Picacho, and Harquahala study areas. These maps and a definition of what an earth fissure is can be viewed online at http://www.azgs.az.gov/efmaps.shtmlOther projects that I directly worked on or was involved with.

Assistant to Mike Rucker, field geophysicist. We were developing and using cutting edge geophysical techniques to investigate earth fissures throughout central and southern Arizona. Methods used included; Dipole dipole IP/resistivity, seismic, and gravity surveys. I also digitized large volumes of historic downhole geophysical data from throughout Maricopa.

I worked in Paul Knauth's stable isotope lab. Sample preparation and a lot of note taking.

Tucson, Arizona, US

I prepared samples in George Gerhels isochron lab. My project was working with Precambrian zircons from central Arizona directed by Karl Karlstrom of the University of New Mexico. This work included sample collection along the Grand Canyon and other key locals along the Yavapai to Mazatzal suture to better understand the tectonic history of North America..

Tempe, AZ, US

Sample preparation for the planetary sciences group. I tested different material properties of fine grained, iron rich clays with analogous chemical composition to those found on Mars. This effort was part of the Mars rover missions.

Welder and fabricator of general wrought iron. Biggest jobs include the Phoenix botanical gardens front entrance, the telemundo steel/earth foundation, and several jobs in clean rooms.
