About Us

McElroy Bryan Geological Services (MBGS) provides specialist consulting and contracting services to the global mining industry.

Since 1970, MBGS’ team of professional geologists have worked alongside leading mining houses and consultancies, supporting the transformation of exploration targets into operating mines that are among the world’s most successful. Our staff members have spent many years gaining experience in varied geological and operational settings, making us unique in our ability to address geological issues relevant to client needs.

We do not hold tenure over any leases, nor do we explore on our own behalf.  We pride ourselves on providing clients with the best advice – without fear, favour or bias.
