Mineralisation

This section of the site will contain a few tales about my time as a geologist working in mineral exploration.

1. The story of the highest gold and silver mine in the world - The Choquelimpie mine.

2. 'A Geological Model for the Alluvial Gold Environment', work for which derives from the time I worked for Rio Tinto and Billiton Metals. It provides quantitative and semi-quantitative parameters to help prospect for deposits of gold in river and other gravels.

3. The story of the Andacollo Gold Mine near La Serena, Chile.
