Services

SMK Geoscience provides independent subsurface geoscience consulting focused on early- to mid-stage resource evaluation for energy and mineral projects. Services are tailored for operators, junior companies, ASX-listed companies, Tribes, and partners seeking technically rigorous, defensible interpretations that support exploration, investment, and development decisions.

Resource Evaluation & Prospect Generation

  • JORC-compliant mineral resource evaluation and reporting by a JORC-qualified Competent Person

  • Integrated geological interpretation to identify and mature exploration targets

  • Prospect generation using legacy and modern datasets

  • Technical support for investment, farm-in, and acquisition decisions

Petrophysics & Legacy Log Interpretation

  • Petrophysical analysis of open-hole and cased-hole wireline logs

  • Reinterpretation of legacy oil & gas logs for uranium, helium, lithium brine, geothermal, and unconventional resources

  • Lithology, porosity, saturation, and facies interpretation

  • Identification of anomalous gamma responses and mineral indicators

  • Licensed access to Petra® and Kingdom® subsurface interpretation software

  • Access to extensive U.S. oil & gas well datasets, including raster logs, digital LAS files, and associated well data

Subsurface Mapping & Structural Analysis

  • Formation tops, isopach, structure, and attribute mapping

  • Structural interpretation including faults, fractures, and fluid pathways

  • Integration of well data, core, and seismic (where available)

  • Basin-scale and prospect-scale geologic models

  • Use of regional and national well databases to support mapping across onshore U.S. basins

Uranium, Helium & Critical Mineral Projects

  • Tabular and roll-front uranium systems

  • Helium system evaluation including source, migration, reservoir, and seal analysis

  • Lithium brine and subsurface fluid system assessment

  • Resource screening, risk assessment, and exploration strategy development

Grant-Supported & Tribal Resource Projects

  • Technical project design for federal and Tribal grant programs (e.g., BIA EMDP)

  • Geological and petrophysical task execution and reporting

  • Integration with geochemistry, geophysics, and field studies

  • Support for Tribal resource assessment and long-term capacity building

Technical Reporting & Due Diligence

  • Preparation of technical memoranda, maps, and figures

  • Data validation and uncertainty assessment

  • Independent technical review for partners and investors

  • Support for public disclosure and regulatory documentation
