Lyn’s experience ranges from grass roots exploration projects through to underground and open pit mining operations.
Within Newcrest, Lyn was responsible for the implementation, management and validation of geological logging systems, data tracking and reconciliation projects, database conversions and the training of geological and site-based staff in database management techniques.
