The job of a Resource Geologist requires practitioners to call upon a multitude of skills in areas such as data analysis, descriptive and spatial statistics, geochemistry, structural and deposit model geology, and mineralogy. This entire spectrum of knowledge must be held together by computing skills, problem-solving savvy and, most of all, a good dose of common sense. Yet another dimension of responsibility is layered on, as a Competent Person is expected to assess RPEEE (Reasonable Prospects for Eventual Economic Extraction), and other modifying factors like land tenure and metallurgical recoveries.
Lucy is a professional geologist with over 20 years in the Mineral Exploration and Mining industry. She has worked for major and junior companies in base and precious metals across Asia, Africa, Australia, and the Americas.
She holds Bachelors degrees in Geology and Education, and is currently pursuing a Graduate Diploma in Mining Law, Finance and Sustainability.
Lucy has experience across all stages of resource development including greenfield exploration, capital projects, and active mining operations. She also co-founded the Global Technical Services team for a major diversified mining company, growing the team from five, to over 40 professionals in 5 countries.
Most recently, Lucy founded Etana Mining Mentors, providing technical training and mentoring that fosters the growth of internal expertise, and engaged technical teams across the industry.
