Expertise
Audrey joined the BCGS in 2024. She studies the diversity of mineral systems and their metal content to identify areas of high mineral potential and evaluate the critical mineral endowment of the province. Her research uses geochemistry and petrographic analysis to study the concentration and distribution of critical companion metals in intrusion-related and sediment-hosted mineral systems.
Before joining the BCGS, Audrey developed a broad knowledge of the province’s metallogeny through tectonic studies and conducting grassroots to advanced-stage mineral exploration throughout western and central BC.
