‘Ahead of the Curve’ (p112-114) is an insightful profile on DIG CT CEO, Craig Lavrick. https://shorturl.at/wxqeH
The feature appears in Australasian Drilling’s Aug/Sept Edition which is almost entirely DRILL26-focused – the Australian and NZ drilling industry’s annual event, this year hosted in Adelaide, South Australia.
Unable to attend DRILL26 due to Board commitments, Craig holds a spotlight on his homeland.
“Working within the global drilling industry and living overseas for almost two decades has provided an interesting perspective on how other countries perceive Australia’s commitment to the evolution of its mineral exploration industry through government-supported research and development initiatives. The global mineral exploration drilling sector is evolving, and we will soon witness a dramatic shift in the way we drill.
Australasia has yielded some of the greatest innovations in mineral exploration drilling, including rod handling, rod spinners, machine learning and capturing real-time data during my almost 40-year career. The international industry is watching, visiting, learning as quickly as possible and seeking to do the same.”
Our appreciation to Jamie Wade and Australian Drilling Industry Association (ADIA) for supporting DIG CT in its quest to implement safety-focused, innovative, efficient and inclusive mineral exploration drilling.
