Chasing Western Australian Diamonds

Grant is a Registered Professional in geology and Fellow of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, and members of Geological Society of Australia, the Geological Remote Sensing Group, and the Meteoritical Association. He is a geologist with over 40 years’ experience in exploration and mining geology and is currently working as a consultant geologist based in Perth, Western Australia. During the past 40 years, he has worked on all continents, except Antarctica, mainly in diamonds, with the last couple of decades working in Western Australia on diamonds and base metals.

For ten years Grant was at the Argyle diamond mine carrying out exploration and evaluation programs, feasibility studies and mine development studies for the Argyle and Ellendale diamond deposits and Argyle’s associated alluvial diamond deposits. Grant has a keen interest in GIS and remote sensing and has been a user of GIS since the mid-1990’s. Grant has been running QGIS courses tailored for geoscientists in Perth and around Australia and continues to seek new ways that QGIS can be applied to geological mapping and mineral exploration.
