The problem

Junior Gold Miner faced declining drilling productivity and rising costs across multiple regions and contractors. The company sought a structured approach to identify performance gaps and focus on the most significant drivers of cost and efficiency.

Our approach

Our team conducted a diagnostic of exploration drilling using historical data and a value driver framework. We compared contractor performance, identified key cost drivers, and developed a structured roadmap to guide deeper analysis and prioritize high-impact improvements in cost per foot drilled.
