About

A principal‑led geological consultancy.

Peron Discoveries is a Perth-based geological consulting and exploration project generation company. Clients work directly with an experienced exploration geologist, from first data review to final recommendation.

The company

Small by design. Senior by default.

We work with exploration and mining companies, boards and investors who need an independent, experienced view of where to explore, what a project is worth and what to drill next.

We measure our work by what it delivers for clients and their shareholders. The experience behind Peron Discoveries includes discoveries, resource growth, a spin-out and a corporate investment with more than A$1.4bn in published value.*

The work is done by the people whose names are on the report. That keeps judgement close to the data, keeps communication direct, and means confidential information stays with a small team.

The name and the ship in our logo look back to François Péron, the French naturalist of the Baudin expedition to Australia's western coast, remembered on today's map at Cape Péron and the Péron Peninsula in Shark Bay.
