Emily Laycock MSc, P.Geol.

Senior Geologist

Emily has spent the past six years as the Senior Project Manager at Thesis Gold's Lawyer & Ranch Project. During her time leading the Lawyers project, it progressed from needing a maiden Resource to releasing a PEA and has since been working towards feasibility. She planned over 250,000m of drilling and was on the ground managing the field operations. Emily was instrumental in combining structural core measurements and mapping data to construct a structural model explaining critical ore shoots in several deposits, significantly impacting the resource and predictability when drilling the structurally controlled lodes. Emily has a strong technical skill set with a passion for integrating geochemical fingerprinting, geophysical and geological data for exploration targeting.

Emily completed a master’s degree in Economic Geology at McGill University in 2019, and completed her BSc in Geology in 2010 at the University of Alberta. Her research focused on the geochemical conditions of the formation of the gold-enriched Snowfield Porphyry Deposit in NW British Columbia. Since graduating from her undergrad in 2010, Emily has worked on a variety of mineral exploration projects, including gold, silver, diamond and base metal projects in the Yukon Territory, British Columbia, Northwest Territories and Western Australia. She has visited and toured several underground mines in Canada and China. Emily is a Professional Geologist registered with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA).
