Our Services
Mineral Exploration Consulting, Project Management and Assessment Credit Work
Deptford can help you design a suitable exploration program and help you execute it. We have experience property mapping, managing drill programs, and conducting geophysical and geochemical surveys. Deptford can also help companies file assessment work on their mining claims to help keep properties in good standing.
Drilling is one of the most important aspects of an exploration program. The logging and storage of core is of vital importance to the value of a project. We have experience using the latest industry software to keep data organized and accessible to the client.

Drilling Program Support and Management
QA/QC Program Development and Monitoring
A project is only as good as the data collected for its database. If this data is unorganized or unverifiable it will negatively affect a project. We can work with clients to ensure their database is in good order, that their protocols meet industry standards, and that the work being done is compliant with NI 43-101 regulations.
Property Evaluation
Mining exploration can be a risky venture and a fair property evaluation is necessary before investing. There are several items that can be evaluated prior to purchasing a project, namely land tenure (does the vendor actually own the property?), QA/QC (does it contain the mineralization the vendor claims?), access, and community relations.
Deptford personnel experience evaluating properties in Ontario, Manitoba, British Columbia and Quebec in Canada, as well as Mexico, Peru, Chile, Guyana, and Argentina.
NI 43-101 Technical Reports and Mineral Resource Estimates
Canada’s National Instrument NI 43-101 is a globally recognized standard for reporting on mining projects. It requires Qualified Persons (QPs) to sign off on the validity of a mining project. Deptford personnel have been involved with NI 43-101 technical reports ranging from Property of Interest Reports and Resource Estimates to Preliminary Economic Assessments and Feasibility Studies. We can assist with the writing of these technical reports or review existing material to ensure it is compliant with NI 43-101 Regulations.
Our associates use the latest software to create NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimates
