Dale Sims is an Australian independent geoscience consultant with over 38 years of international mineral sector experience, dominantly in mining geology, resource development, near mine exploration and resource modelling \/ estimation. Prior to becoming an independent consultant in 2011 he had worked for major Australian and international mining companies focusing on base metal and\/or gold exploration and production, including working as an internal technical expert on resource modelling and project development. He has worked on major mines or projects in Australia, New Zealand, America, Canada, Peru, Indonesia, Ghana and Laos.<\/p>\n
Dale commenced his engagement with Leapfrog software in 2004 when he convinced his then employer Newmont to purchase a copy of the only-recently released Leapfrog Mining software to test against the established modelling software at Newmont sites internationally. The advantages of the software were immediately apparent. Since that time Dale has maintained currency in the software and introduced it to many geoscientists and their companies either through focused corporate roll-outs, or facilitating internal or external training courses.<\/p>\n
Apart from training people to use the Leapfrog Geo, Dale consults on site projects where Leapfrog provides opportunities to advance and enhance the understanding and communication of geological models.<\/p>\n
Delivering Leapfrog Geo training online has its challenges! During the Covid pandemic Dale delivered a number of remote Leapfrog Geo training courses via Zoom and appreciates how difficult it can be to learn software remotely. This course will allow attendees to work at their own pace and offer refresher sessions via webinars and\/or email support or allow more advanced students to forge ahead with the support needed to ensure all attendees achieve the course goals with requisite effort. Dale is not employed by Seequent and so this is an independent course run based on his extensive industry experience in applying the software into a number of geological scenarios.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":60064,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"ocean_post_layout":"","ocean_both_sidebars_style":"","ocean_both_sidebars_content_width":0,"ocean_both_sidebars_sidebars_width":0,"ocean_sidebar":"","ocean_second_sidebar":"","ocean_disable_margins":"enable","ocean_add_body_class":"","ocean_shortcode_before_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_after_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_before_header":"","ocean_shortcode_after_header":"","ocean_has_shortcode":"","ocean_shortcode_after_title":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_bottom":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_bottom":"","ocean_display_top_bar":"default","ocean_display_header":"default","ocean_header_style":"","ocean_center_header_left_menu":"","ocean_custom_header_template":"","ocean_custom_logo":0,"ocean_custom_retina_logo":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_height":0,"ocean_header_custom_menu":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_family":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_subset":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_size":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_unit":"px","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_line_height":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_unit":"","ocean_menu_typo_spacing":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_unit":"","ocean_menu_link_color":"","ocean_menu_link_color_hover":"","ocean_menu_link_color_active":"","ocean_menu_link_background":"","ocean_menu_link_hover_background":"","ocean_menu_link_active_background":"","ocean_menu_social_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_links_color":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_color":"","ocean_disable_title":"default","ocean_disable_heading":"default","ocean_post_title":"","ocean_post_subheading":"","ocean_post_title_style":"","ocean_post_title_background_color":"","ocean_post_title_background":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_image_position":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_attachment":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_repeat":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_size":"","ocean_post_title_height":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay":0.5,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay_color":"","ocean_disable_breadcrumbs":"default","ocean_breadcrumbs_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_separator_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_hover_color":"","ocean_display_footer_widgets":"default","ocean_display_footer_bottom":"default","ocean_custom_footer_template":""},"class_list":["post-60063","profesor","type-profesor","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","entry","has-media","owp-thumbs-layout-horizontal","owp-btn-normal","owp-tabs-layout-horizontal","has-no-thumbnails","has-product-nav"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
