The value of any aggregate operation is based on three factors: What is the material, how much is available for production and what demand exists for this material in the available markets? Geology controls the first two of these factor.
Pits and quarries only exist where geology has endowed an area with suitable material. Geology controls the ability of any given operation to differentiate product so that more value per yard or ton may be earned. Geology is critically important for the identification of deleterious material that might prevent an operation from maintaining product specification, an increasingly vital task as Superpave™ system is more widely utilized in highway construction. Geology is the basis of long-range planning that assures the safety, continuity, operational flexibility and capture of all relevant information generated by an operation.
Geologists are responsible for acquisitions and exploration, material testing, operational planning and execution, permitting and monitoring of environmental and regulatory items including closure activities. They are also often charged with public relations duties.
Tight budgets in today's competitive environment only permit the maintenance of small geological staffs for even the largest companies and oftentimes, important activities are left undone simply for lack of time or staff resources. Outsourcing your geology can provide an answer to these difficult situations.
Outsourcing focuses world-class expertise exactly where and when it is needed. It allows quick reaction to opportunity. The broad experiences of a consulting group can provide answers to problems and situations that are both timely and cost-effective.
