Summary

Resource Geologist with diverse experience across greenfield and brownfield exploration projects, specializing in geological modeling, resource estimation, and multi-commodity evaluations including bauxite, limestone, chromite, lead, zinc, and coal. At GTS Ltd, I expanded into international greenfield projects and gained hands-on expertise in geostatistics, wireframing, block modeling, and resource reporting. Previously at Hindustan Zinc Limited, I developed strong operational skills in Pb-Zn exploration, including borehole planning, core logging, QA/QC implementation, and drill supervision. Proficient in industry-standard software such as Leapfrog, Micromine, Datamine, Minex, and Acquire, with a preliminary understanding of JORC, UNFC, and other global reporting codes. Committed to continuous learning and advancing resource modeling capabilities to contribute meaningfully to exploration and mining decision-making.
