About SolasData

Bringing Clarity to the Core of Geoscience Data

At SolasData, we believe that every reliable decision in mining and exploration starts with data that's clear, traceable, and trusted.

Our mission is simple — to shine light on data so that mining and exploration teams can see what truly matters, remove uncertainty, and operate with confidence.

We understand the operational pressures of site life, the complexity of integrating geological, geotechnical, and assay datasets, and the importance of building systems that not only work — but endure.

SolasData provides independent geoscience data management consultancy services to mining and exploration companies across Australia and beyond. Whether you're migrating legacy systems, strengthening data governance, or need flexible hands-on support, we bring structure, insight, and calm to the chaos.

"At SolasData, we don't just manage data — we illuminate it."

With SolasData, you don't just get a consultant. You get a partner committed to helping your team make better, faster, and safer decisions through clear, reliable information.

Illuminating the path forward

Our Philosophy: Shine Light, Build Trust

We don't just fix data — we reveal it. Our work is guided by three core principles.

Clarity

Data systems should be transparent, intuitive, and easy to trust. If your team can't understand it, it isn't working for you.

Integrity

Quality and traceability underpin every dataset, workflow, and decision. Reliable data is not optional — it's foundational.

Empowerment

Through training and mentoring, we help teams build lasting capability and genuine ownership of their data — not dependency on a consultant.

Why "Solas"?

Derived from the Irish word for light, "Solas" reflects the purpose of our work: illuminating the hidden layers within data so that insight, not noise, guides the path forward.

The Person Behind SolasData

Steven Graham

Principal Database Geologist & Founder

Founded by Steven Graham, a Principal Database Geologist with over 15 years' experience managing complex data ecosystems across gold, base metal, and coal operations, SolasData combines deep technical knowledge with a pragmatic, collaborative approach.

Steven has worked across the full spectrum of the mining data lifecycle — from field data capture through to corporate reporting — with a particular focus on GIM Suite, data governance, workflow design, and the practical realities of making data systems work in demanding operational environments.

SolasData was founded on the belief that every mining and exploration team deserves access to independent, experienced data support — without the complexity or cost of a large consultancy.
