Overview

This unique, two-day seminar focuses on the methodology that David has used when consulting with and training many of the PHD students who now work at some of the largest gold producers in the world. David himself has been instrumental in targeting anomalies for large to small cap companies and now you can learn why. What kind of geological framework needs to be in place to increase the chances of a company finding economically viable exploration targets, and what is the best approach? As an attendee you will be guided through this process. Topics covered will include Fundamentals of Mineral Exploration; Geological Real Estate Value; The Business of Assessing the Best Investment; and actual case studies on evaluating an exploration company and its press releases.
