Boots on the ground – all around the globe
Our head office is in Belgium and we have a regional office in Aydin, Turkey. Contract locations range from the arctic climates of Norway and Russia, over the desert environments of Saudi Arabia and Egypt to the tropics of South Sudan, DRC, Angola and Mexico. We have worked in a variety of countries worldwide, but the geographic focus of our experience became the Tethyan Metallogenic Belt (Balkans, Turkey & Central Asia) and the mineral deposits of West and Central Africa, and Europe.
