Our experienced and qualified team provides safe, diligent, and cost-effective field operations to develop your mineral exploration targets.

Whether we are part of your initial reconnaissance on a new claim package or expanding an advanced-stage exploration program, you can be confident that we will manage your project efficiently and professionally.

Our Mission

Mineral exploration is changing. Investors and prudent management teams increasingly prioritize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. As do we. Our team of conscientious individuals is passionate about reducing the environmental footprint of our industry. We work energetically and creatively to minimize our carbon footprint, to leave no trace campsites, and to respect local communities and local ecology as we run your program. We want you to be proud of how your fieldwork is completed. Our team strives to improve our exploration methodologies, and we often save clients money as we reduce our footprint.

We aim to

  • Inspire and influence others by significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the negative environmental impacts of our geological exploration projects.

 

  • Establish values-aligned employment fostering collaboration, community, critical thinking, and personal growth.

 

  • Provide high quality, honest services for our clients.

"Anomalous Exploration completed several green field exploration surveys for Centerra last season. The sample quality and their returned data were excellent. A major benefit of this crew over other options was the light footprint of their camps and their logistical flexibility. We were able to feed them an ever changing stream of target areas, and they reacted quickly and efficiently, allowing me to redirect focus as new information came in." Dave Cox, Centerra Senior Project Geologist

"Anomalous conducted a basal till sampling program on three of Orogen’s properties in 2022. They were a pleasure to work with, exploring effectively and within budget. The group were very easy to communicate with and the reporting - both technical and financial- was excellent. We will aim to use the group on future exploration programs." Laurence Pryer, Orogen Royalties Vice-President of  Exploration
