Meet Paul Blackney
“I’m a resource geologist with 40 years of mining and consulting experience. My expertise areas are resource estimation, technical auditing and training, with commodity experience spanning gold, iron ore, porphyry copper-gold, base metals and mineral sands. I conduct training in sampling, QAQC and resource estimation utilising the experience gained while working as a consultant to mining and exploration companies for over 30 years. I enjoy passing on my skills and knowledge to those attending our training courses and mentoring programmes.”
