Earth Source Limited
Earth Source Limited
Earth Source Limited is an independent exploration team. We deliver desktop targeting and fieldwork anywhere in the world — from early‑stage prospect reviews through to drill‑ready targets and technical due diligence. We combine hard field geology with disciplined data integration to produce clear, defensible next steps.
Earth Source Limited is a UK‑based mineral exploration company working internationally. We generate and advance mineral projects across commodities — precious & critical metals, REE's, industrial minerals...
Compile and normalise datasets related to target project, build a coherent geological and structural story, then go to the ground to confirm it.
Work spans regional targeting and anomaly triage, mapping and structural analysis, sampling strategy and programme design, and integrating geochemistry, geophysics and remote sensing when it improves the model. Outputs are built to be used: clean datasets, clear maps, ranked targets, and a plan for the next decision.
Evidence → Decisions → Next stepMaps and figures, clean datasets, target‑ranking tables, field notes and photo logs, sections and drill concepts — packaged so partners can act, and decisions trace back to evidence.
Clean deliverablesWe work across commodities and deposit styles. What matters is whether the geology is testable and the pathway to a decision is clear.
Regional screening to ranked targets: historical synthesis plus modern datasets, geophysics, geochemistry, and remote sensing only where it genuinely improves the model.
Synthesis • Ranking • ClarityFieldwork designed to answer questions: mapping, structural observations, alteration and lithology logging, and targeted sampling with QA/QC. We iterate fast when the outcrop disagrees with the desk model.
Mapping • Sampling • ContextFrom lithium, rare earths & Nb‑Ta systems through to base and precious metals. Orogenic, Porphyry, Pegmatites and intrusives, sediment‑hosted systems, and structurally‑controlled mineralisation — we build the model around what the ground and data show.
Au • Ag • Cu • Li • REE • Nb‑Ta • Sn‑W • Zn‑PbWhen the evidence supports it, we develop drill concepts and next‑step plans: priorities, budgets, timelines, and the minimum work required to reach the next decision point.
Decision pointsWork includes everything including and between early-stage target generation through to resource drilling.
Project generation and advancement across Ireland, including base‑metal and critical‑mineral opportunities. Focus is on district‑scale upside, solid geology, and programmes that move from concept to drill decision.
IrelandTarget generation and early‑stage advancement across the UK: desktop build, historic synthesis, and pragmatic field follow‑up, with clean packaging for partners and funders.
United KingdomWe take on difficult assignments: fragmented datasets, remote ground, early concepts that need discipline, or advanced targets that need a clean path to drilling. Desktop targeting, fieldwork, or both — we’ll scope it, do the work, and provide a clear technical view of what the geology supports.
Decision gatesClear scope, rigorous interpretation, and direct communication about uncertainty. You’ll always know what’s observation, what’s interpretation, and what still needs to be tested.
Compile and normalise data, build a geological/structural model, and define a short list of testable targets.
GIS-firstGround‑truth the model: mapping, structural observations, selective sampling with QA/QC, and rapid iteration where the geology disagrees.
Field-firstRank targets, set budgets and timelines, and produce partner‑ready materials when it’s time to move.
