Why Choose Us?
We work wherever the project is. Network members are based across Europe and North America, with active project experience in Central Asia, Australia, Africa, and South America as well.
You get the expert from the first call to the final report. The geologist you meet at scoping is the one who performs the work, signs the document, and answers the phone when something needs explaining. No account managers, no junior staff doing the work while senior staff sign it off from a distance.
Data interpretation is only as good as the geological understanding behind it, and that understanding comes from time at the field, not time at a desk. Our specialists spend a meaningful share of every year on site.
We design programmes for decision, not for endless data collection. A target either gets tested or gets retired.
We apply that discipline to every project we run. If the data isn't building the case, we say so, and redirect effort to ground that warrants it. Most exploration money is lost slowly on properties that should have been dropped two seasons earlier.

Building exploration projects from the ground up. We compile open-file government data, historical company datasets, geophysics, and geochemistry, then reinterpret it under current exploration models. The output is a ranked inventory of targets with a clear geological rationale and a defined path to first-pass fieldwork, ready to stake, fund, or take to a partner.
Independent technical assessment of a property at any stage. Used for acquisition due diligence, JV decisions, earn-in negotiations, financing, and internal portfolio reviews. We assess geological merit, data integrity, prior work quality, and realistic upside at the project's current maturity. The deliverable is a defensible technical position, not a marketing document.
A structured re-reading of everything already on file. Historical drilling, soil and rock geochemistry, magnetics, IP, gravity, mapping, and prior interpretation, integrated as a single system. We flag the gaps, test whether the geological case holds up, and define whether further work is justified. Often the cheapest decision-grade product an early-stage project will produce.
Reporting and disclosure documents prepared to NI 43-101, JORC 2012, and PERC. Includes independent technical reports, MRE supporting documentation, news releases, and investor-facing technical materials. Written by the geologists who did the work, with figures, sections, and tables that hold up to CP/QP, regulator, and analyst review.

Decision Support
FrontFinders helps teams make clearer decisions before time, capital and drill metres are committed.
We validate the drill results, assays and survey data and run a QA/QC review before anything is built on them. The geological model is then constructed or updated on that checked foundation, so the interpretation stands on evidence rather than on the numbers as reported.
The project is graded against its style of mineralisation, grade and continuity and the potential scale of the system. Ranking the targets on that basis puts capital behind the ground with the strongest technical case and sets weaker prospects aside rather than drilling them without justification.
A technical risk and gap analysis runs across the dataset, covering sampling, QA/QC, the geological model and, where one exists, the resource estimate. It produces a documented list of the gaps and the risks attached to them, which feeds straight into programme design and budget.
The work closes with a recommendation and the reporting to support it. Reporting is compliant in accordance with JORC, NI 43-101, PERC or whichever CRIRSCO code applies, and the recommendation states plainly whether to advance, refine, take the project to JV or farm-out, or divest. Board and investor materials are prepared to carry that case.

Founder and Principal Geologist | MSc | EurGeol | QP/CP
Exploration geologist with 19+ years across project generation, exploration, and development in Europe, North America, Africa, and Australia. Began his career at Rio Tinto and went on to work for multiple public companies as an exploration geologist and in senior management roles before founding FrontFinders.
A detail-driven geologist with a strong focus on people and safety, Dejan has managed exploration efforts on over 50 projects from greenfield stage through project development. He has acted as CP/QP since 2019 and is author or co-author of more than 200 technical reports, from desktop studies through scoping stage.
