Independently carried out a single-contract multi-element resource estimation and JORC report update for the Red River Resources Thalanga Zn Project using Micromine software.

* Lead exploration teams for gold, base metals, lithium and graphite greenfields exploration. * Perform geologic mapping, geophysical surveys, stream sediment, soil and rock sampling. * Maintain and validate sampling databases. * Use MapInfo to plan sampling programs. * Use Micromine to perform resource estimates.

* Managed commodity research teams for gold mines, copper mines, copper smelters and silver mines. * Managed China mine and smelter research team—focussing on gold, copper, zinc, and lead. * Wrote quarterly industry strategic reports on gold and copper global industries. * Wrote quarterly cost reports on gold and copper global mines. * Analysed and maintained database, writing critical analyses for all mines under coverage. * Provided support to global client network. * Delivered commodity presentations to clients on global supply, demand and price outlooks. * Performed site audits of Chinese mines and smelters.

* Used Esri ArcGIS software to analyse and refine Asia mineral occurrences, China geochemistry, and China geochronology databases. * Generated scoring system to assess porphyry copper fertility potential by analysing trace element ratios with focus on calc-alkaline magmatic arcs. * Created and supervised geochemical and geochronological database expansion program. Managed and performed QAQC on work done by group of Chinese interns who methodically read through a vast resource of Chinese publications owned by CRTX. * Delivered technical presentations that discussed results and recommendations to senior management.

* Gunnison In-Situ Copper Project * Supervised QAQC core sampling procedures and geotechnical logging. * Implemented data entry procedures. * Performed drill core logging.

* Twin Buttes Porphyry Skarn Cu-Mo Deposit: * Used WellCAD down-hole imaging software to digitally log down-hole survey images, create polar strike and dip projections. * Performed drill core logging using hand-lens. Recorded lithology, mineralogy, alteration, structure, and Cu-Mo mineralization. * Supervised RC drill rig operation; tasks included rock chip logging, checking strike and dip of mast, overseeing safety procedures. * Supervised geo-tech worker operations; tasks include keeping track of hours worked, ensuring quality control of core splitting and rock quality-designation logging, leading safety meetings. * Oro Valley Office: * Interpreted and digitized geology and assay data. * Created maps in MineSight and validated digitized data against original hard copy. Worked on Ajo, AZ and Tenke, D.R. Congo deposits.

* Performed research at Resolution Porphyry Cu-(Mo) Deposit, funded by Rio Tinto. * Logged core drilled from sericitic and advanced argillic altered rocks. * Recorded sulphide and silicate mineral abundances and vein measurements. * Analysed samples using infrared mineral analyser (PIMA), electron microprobe, scanning electron microscope. * Performed transmitted and reflected light petrography to identify and characterize silicates and sulfides.

Delivered geology discussion section lectures and graded exams.
