Thendo Makhuvha

Dynamic and motivated Geologist with hands-on experience in core and chip logging, geological mapping, mining operations, mine planning and production planning. Skilled in data processing, 3D mapping, geological mapping and modelling and geological software. Proven track record of delivering quality work efficiently and on time.

I am a highly experienced Geologist with a Bachelor's Degree in Geology and a strong background in open-cast mining operations, mineral exploration with core and chip logging, mine and production planning, geological mapping, and modelling, I am excited about the prospect of contributing to your team and furthering my growth as a Geologist.

In my current role as a Geologist at The RVN Group, I have garnered valuable experience in mineral exploration and core logging, sampling and cutting. My expertise includes the creation of detailed geological reports that offer actionable insights for operational improvement. This experience has sharpened my skills in data analysis and interpretation, providing me with a solid foundation for contributing to the success of the organization.

During my tenure as a Junior Mine Geologist at DFT group, and intern at Tharisa Minerals, I honed my abilities in reverse circulation sample collection, diamond core logging, and 3D camera mapping. Additionally, I gained valuable experience in production and mine planning, ore grade control, and geological mapping and modelling. Proficient in geological mapping software such as Datamine Sirovision, Deswik.CAD, and Sable, I have applied these tools to enhance data processing and analysis.

My academic background, coupled with practical knowledge, equips me with the technical expertise necessary to excel in a geology and planning role.

Bachelor's Degree of Science in Geology from the University of Pretoria, obtained in 2015. The program focused on applied fields of economic geology, mineralogy, structural geology and mechanics, and engineering geology and hydrogeology.
