Geologist offering over a decade of success in directing geological exploration, geotechnical interpretation, and drilling operations. A meticulous professional who pairs field expertise in core/RC logging and mudlogging with advanced 3D modeling capabilities. Adept at bridging the gap between field data and corporate strategy, transforming complex geological insights into clear, high-quality models that drive project prioritization and executive-level decisions.
Lithological & Mineralogical Identification: Rapidly identifying rock types, mineral compositions, alteration zones, and vein structures.
Geotechnical Scoring (RQD & RMR): Calculating Rock Quality Designation (RQD) and determining Rock Mass Ratings (RMR) by assessing fracture frequency, joint condition, and core recovery percentages.
Structural Interpretation: Measuring alpha and beta angles using a goniometer to map structural orientation (faults, bedding planes, foliation) relative to the core axis.
Sampling Protocol & QA/QC: Standardized core cutting, quartering, photo documentation (dry vs. wet), and inserting quality control standards/blanks for assay analysis.
