Testimonials
A resource estimate is only as good as the understanding of the geological controls on mineralization. As we have seen over and over recently, a "black box" approach to resource estimation with a poor understanding of the geology, or a disconnect between geology and resource modeling, can lead to disastrous consequences for a company and its shareholders. I have worked with Jim Gray for almost 20 years on resource modeling; I supply the geological controls, and Jim supplies his geological background and considerable expertise in resource modeling, and together we create a model that accurately reflects the real shape of the deposit and distribution of mineralization. Jim is constantly testing the limits of what the software can do in order to make the model reflect what we believe is really happening within a deposit. Jim's mine site experience and work on deposits that have become mines are a check on the accuracy of his work that not every resource modeler has. Jim's final reports for NI 43-101 Technical Reports are organized, thorough, and well-illustrated. I would highly recommend Jim for any resource estimation work.”
