IGS employs highly experienced geologists to undertake geological mapping at various scales, from regional overviews to more detailed prospect-scale mapping.

Our services generate data which is of fundamental importance to government institutions and to the commercial sector, both of whom are seeking to understand the potential importance and structure of the subsurface.

We undertake mapping not only for mineral resources, but can also undertake mapping to assist in the identification of hydrocarbon resources, understanding hydrogeology and natural hazards, as well as for land-use planning.

Amongst other work, we are currently involved in an ongoing World Bank-funded geological mapping project in Mozambique, and have also recently mapped in DR Congo and Tanzania. We are also undertaking geological mapping in Lao, which commenced in 2017.
