OB1 Geostat’ provides geostatistical resource evaluation and consulting to the mining sector for a wide range of commodities including: Precious and Base Metals, Mineral Sands, Diamonds, Iron Ore and Coal deposits. OB1 Geostat’ relies on the sound application of geostatistical techniques in a timely and effi cient manner and in constant collaboration with resource geologists. OB1 Geostat’ places a strong emphasis on presenting clear communication of outcomes to mine planning engineers, fi nancial analysts site and/or corporate management.

OB1 Geostat’s director is Olivier Bertoli. Olivier’s high level training in applied mathematics, mining engineering and geostatistics from the Paris School of Mines is broadened by more than 10 years of practical experience as a professional geostatistician including 5 years as Technical Director of Quantitative Geoscience Pty Ltd www.quantitativegeoscience.com. Olivier’ has a proven track record in staff training including extensive experience with hands-on co-piloting sessions utilising the specialised geostatistical toolbox Isatis (developed by Geovariances).

Olivier maintains very strong links with Geovariances www.geovariances.fr and the Centre for Geostatistics in Fontainebleau cg.ensmp.fr/ as part of OB1 Geostat’s Research & Developement strategy.
