Luke Forti

Luke is an experienced Geoscientist and has held several senior and management roles in mining and exploration across a 17 year career as an Earth Sciences graduate from Monash University and Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.
These roles offered exposure to Australian Cratons and Basins from the Eastern Mt Isa Inlier, Thompson Orogen, Lachlan, Kanmantoo and Adelaide fold belts to the Gawler Craton, Musgrave, Arunta, the mining hubs of Hammersley, the remoteness of the Kimberly and the ever competitive Yilgarn.
Mr Forti has also much exposure to international mineral systems and projects.
Mr Forti has managed some of the largest exploration portfolios for junior listed companies, large drill outs for mid-tier companies and the mine geology of emerging and the largest of Australian operations.
More recently Mr Forti has directed a team of experienced geologists and consulted to industry to provide modern Mineral Exploration and business direction, from business strategy, business development, Mergers and Acquisitions to new IPO’s and the academic and financial complexity of Mineral Exploration undercover.
Mr Forti offers an astute understanding of Australian mineral economics and market dynamics and Australia’s position in the resources sector, with the added foresight of economic analysis of the upstream business dynamics and downstream volatility of the mining arena at the drill stem.
Luke is based in Perth.
