Red Earth Geosciences Banner

RedEarthGeo:-

is an independent expert consultancy in the applied geosciences aligned with water supply; groundwater and rock fabric issues in civil and environmental engineering; open cast mining; and land development. We offer to provide new, enhanced or reviewed understandings of sites and geoscientific situations, investigations and analyses — from the unexceptional to the difficult - in urban and regional contexts — in Australia and beyond - in the areas of:-

* hydrogeological and engineering geological assessments for mining operations, suburban and infrastructure developments

* environmental hydrogeology with special reference to hydrogeochemistry, hydromicrobiology, spatial sampling and statistical analysis in connection with landfills, cemeteries, soil and rock fills

*groundwater vulnerability and basic hydrogeology for supply and resource management, including the unsaturated zone

* historical geology and its potential impact or influence on project aspects

* the quality of data collection, conceptual and statistical analysis and assessment in engineering geological, mine and groundwater resource developments and investigations

* the influences of geomorphology and geological structure in developments at all scales; but especially microgeomorphological and terrain assessment at small-medium sites

* assesments of construction materials' investigation; quarries and related development matters.

 

 

RedEarthGeo develops detailed conceptual understandings of sites and resources, and refines these understandings to the level required for exploitation, abstraction or action. We can review the underlying concepts for site investigations, the completeness of investigations, or the accuracy of geological inferences.

RedEarthGeo can provide ongoing assessment of site conditions or investigations, and interpretation of how monitoring data affects performance and advancement within established projects; or we can re-evaluate old and new data.

 

RedEarthGeo provides expert and review consultancy on confidential and litigious issues, including advice in forensic geology and environmental forensics: we will work for proponents and opponents where skillful, professional advice and opinion is needed.
