Valls Geoconsultant (VG) is offering a quality assurance program for the field sampling procedures which include collection, labeling, and shipping components. VG also has established a series of procedures for logging and general mapping. This is especially important in larger projects, where more than one geologist is doing field descriptions.

Since most the superficial ore deposits have been already discovered, the job of the field geologist becomes more and more complicated with each passing day. We now need to reorient our work to interpret the geochemical, geophysical and other signals related to these blind and/or buried mineralized rocks. In our help come more sophisticated equipment, new powerful software and more rational geological theories, all which demand from us a more complete theoretical formation. On the other pan of the scale, we have graduate and post-graduate students with a solid theoretical background, but with...
