About Us​

NDH Discoveries is an exploration target generator that applies proprietary hyperspectral methodology to identify cryptic alteration mineral assemblages that have not been recognized through conventional exploration activities. The company was founded by three economic geologists with decades of relevant experience in hyperspectral analysis, interpretation, and field evaluation. We have built up broad expertise in spectral geology, by analysing the alteration systems that surround hundreds of deposits and prospects around the globe, belonging toa wide variety of deposit types. Our work has resulted in numerous cases of alteration being identified by hyperspectral data, in settings where it is not easily recognized through field observations. These exposed cryptic alteration systems are often on open land, where little or no previous exploration activity has occurred. We are actively building a portfolio of claims and licenses for these target areas, and continue to evaluate further areas. NDH Discoveries is our way of having ‘skin in the game’, in the form of upside exposure to any discovery success at the targets that we generate.
The NDH Discoveries team is international, with founding directors in Ireland, United States, and Spain. We have worked extensively with hyperspectral data from aircraft and satellite platforms. Our current work utilizes publicly available hyperspectral data from carefully selected sensors that record high quality data and have increasing imagery coverage around the world. 
There are not many geologists who have seen as wide a range of alteration systems, or have specifically mapped transcrustal structures over similar large areas, as members of the NDH Discoveries team. In general, there are not many geologists who have spent many years mapping key aspects of geology at the scale that enables making informed camp-scale decisions. We plan to use this experience to play a key role in future discoveries of world-class porphyry, skarn, epithermal and other deposits with cryptic alteration footprints. There is an obvious opportunity in regions that have been underexplored, but we expect that even in regions that have already seen significant exploration, we can contribute to the discovery of new deposits, by focusing on new datasets and using proven, proprietary techniques.
