Owen Hackenberg

GEOLOGIST | Bsc (Hons) Geology

Owen is a Geologist and is currently dedicated to NextMaps full-time. He completed his post-graduate studies researching IOCG mineral systems prospectivity in NW Queensland. He then moved into resource development and mine operations in the Pilbara, Western Australia, before returning to exploration, where he applied innovative technologies to mineral systems targeting in search for gold, base-metals, and lithium.

Throughout his career, he has refined what does and does not work when it comes to maps & geological figures.

He believes that effectively communicating and understanding geological data is a critical foundation for all decision points, from exploration to end of mine life, for investors, geologist, MD’s and board directors alike.
