wow.gl Professional Geology Services – Geology Services specialising in Mineral Exploration

Welcome to wow.gl Professional Geology Services

wow.gl is the trading name for the sole proprietorship, Mark Hutchison PhD RPGeo (CVR - 41819499) registered in Greenland. This is the vehicle for minerals exploration services throughout Greenland. However, with over 25 years as a qualified geologist, in addition to Greenland I have extensive experience in managing projects at a high level internationally on five continents.

I invite you to take a look at my Linkedin profile.

I am an RPGeo in the fields of mineral exploration and geochemistry and can offer 43-101/JORC Qualified Person services. I have focussed on green- and brown-fields exploration, throughout the world but specialising in the Arctic. However, I have also worked as Exploration Manager responsible for active mine-site development in Australia and I am knowledgeable of the full supply chain from financing, exploration, and through to exploitation and remediation.

My specialties are in re-worked and primary igneous-hosted commodities including copper, gold, diamonds, rare earths and other ciritical metals, nickel, and also lead-zinc. I maintain strong and continuing academic collaborations and my publication record can be found here.

Outsourcing

My company can arrange geology and geophysics management, technical capabilities and field personnel from field hands to specialists. We can arrange personnel and equipment transport, by boat, aircraft or, to the extent that this is possible in Greenland, by road. In addition to geoscience technicians, we can source skilled and unskilled labour including construction, camp management, cook, nursing and technical personnel. We can arrange accommodation, both through boat-charter and by provision of field camps. We can provide networking services, connecting our clients with experts domestically, and internationally, in the sciences, policy and government. We can facilitate permitting and compliance.

We know Greenland. You need it, and we can assist you in finding it.
