ABOUT US

The right pieces.
A shared purpose.

Tetris Geometallurgy is an independent consulting business specialising in geometallurgy, orebody knowledge and predictive resource characterisation.

Insight you
can put to work.

We help mining companies maximise project value through geometallurgical programs that deliver actionable insights. Our approach connects the geological story of a deposit with the way its ore behaves in the plant.

Every orebody is different. We design customised strategies that reduce uncertainty and support better investment, mine planning and operational decisions.

PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT

Karyn Gardner

BSc (Hons), MAusIMM

Karyn brings more than 20 years of experience across Australia’s mining industry, including Newcrest Mining, Evolution Mining and Mineral Resources.

She has developed and led strategic geometallurgical programs for major gold, copper, lithium and iron ore operations, bringing geology, mineralogy, metallurgy and operational data together to improve mine planning and processing performance.

Her experience spans resource estimation, orebody knowledge, testwork design, predictive modelling and technology implementation. She has led multidisciplinary teams and combines geological understanding with machine learning and modern analytical technologies.

SOLVING THE PUZZLE, TOGETHER

Serious about the work.
Room for personality.

Complex deposits call for curiosity, collaboration and the ability to see how the pieces fit. There’s room for a different perspective — and an occasional hard-hatted alter ego.

Mentoring and developing technical professionals is part of Karyn’s approach, alongside practical technical leadership and a focus on useful outcomes.
