APS Geo Services personnel have over 15 years of experience and
expertise in aggregates geology gathered whilst working for major
national companies within the extractive industry as both a
geologist and a geological manager. We believe our geological
experience is unparalleled in Scotland as a result of the number of
active and dormant sites we have personally worked on the length and
breadth of the country during the past 15 years. Our expertise
spans a wide range of disciplines, including the following:
Site Finding

Site Investigation
We have organized and supervised numerous exploration programmes,
for varying types of hard rock and sand and gravel. This includes
every aspect from determining the optimum locations for the
boreholes to ensure maximum information collation but to minimise
cost, to logging the cores or samples, to determining the testing
regime on the samples, to interpreting the results from the testing,
through to the final quarry extraction design. Each exploration
programme will be devised to accommodate the specific conditions of
the site geology, using methods such as geological mapping,
drilling, test pitting and testing of samples.
