About Ian Riddle

A Project Resource Development Geologist overseeing multiple project areas at SSR’s Marigold mine including the Buffalo Valley property, an intrusion-related porphyry skarn gold deposit. In my role, I\'ve contributed to various aspects of exploration and development through geologic mapping, drill planning and geologic/resource modeling with Leapfrog Geo. I have worked with SSR Mining as an exploration/resource development geologist since October 2019.Before joining SSR Mining, I worked as an Exploration Geologist at Piedmont Lithium Limited in Charlotte, North Carolina, from January 2018 to August 2019. During my time there, I gained valuable experience in core logging, rock identification, geotech, mineralogy, field and geophysical methods. I completed my education at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania, graduating with a focus on Environmental Science and Geology/Earth Science, General, from 2014 to 2017. My academic background has provided a solid foundation for my career in the mining sector. Feel free to connect for discussions on geology, exploration, or anything related to our shared professional interests!
