Company Profile

 

Bikerman Engineering and Technology Associates, Inc. (BETA) is a minerals industry consulting firm founded by David Bikerman in early 1997 and incorporated later that year. The facilities are housed in a 2,400 ft2 office located in Old Lyme, Connecticut.

BETA offers expert services ranging from: exploration and geologic model preparation; geostatistical and reserve analysis; environmental plans; project feasibility; to project design and management. BETA personnel have extensive experience with open-pit and underground mine operations from grass-roots exploration through start-up to steady-state production.

Our in-depth knowledge of heap-leach gold projects in Latin America is unsurpassed.

BETA's technical personnel were senior managers in Latin America contributing towards making successful low-cost operators of heap leach gold mines in Nicaragua and Honduras. BETA performed due-diligence and feasibility studies for gold projects in Panama, Nicaragua, Honduras, and Costa Rica.

BETA's principal is David Bikerman.. Mr. Bikerman left a position as Vice President and Chief Engineer of Greenstone Resources Ltd in 1997 in order to start BETA.

In addition to its employees, BETA has numerous consultants who may be assigned to specific jobs as circumstances warrant. Consultants to BETA are selected to provide the best-suited person to perform the job at hand.

BETA's strength is its working experience gained from Latin American mining projects. Senior personnel are Spanish speaking and familiar with the infrastructure, economics and culture of the region. BETA will consider jobs anywhere in the world. We highlight the advantage we have gained while working, living, and investing in Latin America.

BETA has offered consulting services to clients on gold projects in four Central American countries (Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua, and Honduras) and in Canada. Despite low gold prices today that are likely to continue into the future, BETA remains steadfast in offering quality engineering and geologic services to the mining community.

 

BETA specializes in working effectively with available client resources so as to provide a cooperative team and a cost-effective product. 

High-tech and completely self-sufficient, BETA's overhead is low which translates into lower-cost services for our clients. 

Quality is our primary concern, and as such, all clients can expect BETA to produce a reliable product subject to scrutiny by the industry.
