Second EAGE Conference on Near Surface and Mineral Exploration in Latin America

3-4 November 2022 |Bogotá, Colombia 

MEET OUR INVITED SPEAKERS

Darren Burrows

Xcalibur

Is graduated from the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa in 2006 with a Geophysics (Hons) degree. Initially he worked in the deep Gold mines of South Africa analysing mining induced seismicity, and working with rock engineers to ensure safe underground mining conditions. He then moved to a Platinum exploration project in the Bushveld Igneous Complex planning drillholes, logging core and managing exploration data. Finally, he moved to airborne geophysics with Fugro / CGG / Xcalibur where he has held various roles focussing on geophysical data processing & interpretation as well as business development. At Xcalibur he helps mineral, oil & gas, and government explorers design airborne geophysical programs to answer their exploration questions.

Adjunct professor of the Chairs of Environmental Hydrologyand Underground Hydrology in the Engineering in Natural Resources andEnvironment and Geology, respectively, at the National University of La Pampa(UNLPam). Professor of doctorates in Biosciences (UNLPam), doctorate inGeology (UNSa). He is also a professor of the Master's Degree in WaterResources at the Fceyn of UNLPam. He has taught numerous postgraduate courses in various Public and Private Organizations and Universities related to water issues. He directs and has directed theses and Postgraduate scholarships atUniversities in Argentina and abroad. He has published more than 100 articles in specialized journ.

Rodrigo Tusi Costa 

AFC geofísica

Geologist and M.Sc. in Geosciences (UFRGS - Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul). Project Manager, RDI Advisor and Partner at AFC Geofísica Ltda. With more than 20 years of experience in geophysical surveys with different methodologies applied to mineral prospecting, engineering, environment and groundwater.

At AFC, one of the developers of the deep IP data acquisition technique named IMIP; also one of the developers of the ASIP data acquisition system, equipment developed by AFC with support from the Brazilian innovation promotion agency FINEP; and more recently dedicated to the development of new geophysical technologies oriented for mining and dam engineering projects.


 Glenn Chubak 

Technology for Dias Geophysical

Holds an M.Sc in Geophysics from the University of Saskatchewan.  He is the past president of the SEG Mining Committee and an executive member of the Ground Geophysical Survey Safety Association.  Glenn’s current role as founder and VP of Technology for Dias Geophysical allows him to pursue his research interests in collecting big data through developing new instrumentation and applying advances in quantum sensing to geophysical problems.


Andrea Crook

OptiSeis Solutions Ltd

Is P.Geoph., is the President and CEO of OptiSeis Solutions Ltd., which she founded in 2011. OptiSeis provides innovative acquisition solutions for acquiring high resolution seismic data both through consulting services and geophysical acquisition software. Andrea’s previous experience includes seismic processing and geophysical operations at Shell Canada, where she worked on many high-resolution and experimental seismic acquisition projects, and geophysical consulting at Boyd PetroSearch/RPS for both mining and oil & gas seismic programs. At OptiSeis, she oversees seismic acquisition design projects and software development, and is also the lead on EcoSeis, a collaborative research project that aims to reduce the environmental impact of acquiring seismic data.

Andrea is an instructor for the SEG and the CSEG Doodletrain, and an active contributor in the field of geophysics. She received a Best Paper award at the 2019 GeoConvention and was awarded the 2019 CSEG Technical Achievement Award for her outstanding technical contributions in the field of Canadian Geophysics. Andrea also on the Clean Resource Innovation Network Board of Directors.


Catherine  Phaneuf

Abitibi Geophysics

Received her master’s degree in Earth Science from UQAM and since then she has applied her knowledge in the mineral exploration industry. She joined Abitibi Geophysics in 2017 as a project geophysicist. In this role, she has managed more than 60 projects within Canada, USA, and Kazakhstan.
