Integra Gold Challenge - Top 20 finalist
Gavin Daneel & Associates joined up with GEOWIZ Consulting and participated as the "GeoWizards" group in the Integra Goldrush Challenge. The Integra Goldrush Challenge was one of the largest mining industry focused crowdsourcing analytical challenges ever created, consisting of more than 6 terabytes of digital mining and exploration data, spanning more than 75 years of mining activity and 9 million ounces of gold production in the Val-d'Or district of Quebec, Canada. 1,342 participants from 83 countries competed for a total prize consideration of CA$1 million by submitting their proposals as to where to find the next big gold discovery. The GeoWizards group is proud to have been selected as one of the Top 20 finalists for their proposal and awarded a CA$10,000 prize, from which Top 5 finalists were selected and an eventual winner declared.
