Juan Matías Catinari

Senior Geologist

Early-Stage Mining and Geotechnical Project Evaluation Consultant

Geological evaluation focused on identifying mineral potential, reducing uncertainty, and assessing risks to support investment decision-making in the early stages of a project.

Professional Profile

I focus on the early-stage evaluation of mining and geotechnical projects, integrating comprehensive geological analysis, risk management criteria, and the application of internationally recognized technical standards (QA/QC), providing technical clarity in high-uncertainty environments. I work in close collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, taking technical responsibility for defining criteria, interpreting results, and developing recommendations for early project stages.

Services

Early-stage mining and geotechnical projects concentrate a high degree of technical uncertainty and economic risk. A rigorous geological evaluation enables the identification of real opportunities, the delineation of favorable areas, and the optimization of resource allocation before advancing to higher-investment exploration stages.
