“GGM.EARTH Opens New Headquarters”

With the opening of our new headquarters in Ndola in 2026, GGM.EARTH is launching a center of excellence for applied geosciences, establishing a strategic platform for innovation and sustainable development across Southern Africa. The Ndola HQ combines advanced exploration and monitoring technologies with a deep commitment to capacity building and creating international partnerships. Our goal is to make Zambia a regional benchmark for the geosciences.

Our Vision: Innovation, Growth, and Knowledge

The Ndola HQ is more than an office: it is a hub designed to integrate advanced exploration, infrastructure monitoring, sustainable agriculture, and professional training. We are building a bridge between global expertise and local needs, fostering a continuous flow of knowledge to empower professionals and institutions in Zambia and beyond.

Key Objectives:

  • Technological Leadership: Implementing cutting-edge geophysical and monitoring technologies to map unexplored territories and manage resources efficiently.

  • Sustainable Development: Supporting projects aligned with environmental and social goals, from water management to food security.

Capacity Building: Creating a new generation of local experts through structured training programs and academic collaborations.

What We Do

Services for a Resilient Future

Our services in Zambia are tailored to address the key challenges and opportunities of the region.

  • Mineral Resources & Geological Exploration

    We provide detailed mapping of geological structures and resistivity anomalies, mineral reserve evaluation, and support for gemmological certifications.

    Our work at the FISENGE and KAFUBU emerald mines demonstrates our expertise in applying advanced geophysics (2D/3D ERT) for resource exploration.

  • Hydrology & Water Management

    We offer comprehensive and tailored solutions for aquifer modelling, groundwater exploration, and the continuous, real-time monitoring of dams and reservoirs. These essential services are specifically designed to promote sustainable water management practices, safeguard water resources, and effectively mitigate potential flood risks in diverse environmental conditions.

  • Agriculture 4.0 & Land Planning

    We actively support food security by employing advanced soil mapping techniques, optimizing irrigation systems with precision technologies, and promoting sustainable land use planning practices. These integrated efforts help ensure efficient resource management, reduce environmental impact, and foster long-term agricultural productivity and resilience.

  • Infrastructure Monitoring

    We ensure the safety and longevity of critical infrastructure—including dams, tunnels, bridges, railways, and energy plants—through advanced predictive geotechnical modelling combined with continuous and precise monitoring techniques. This comprehensive approach enables us to anticipate potential issues early, thereby safeguarding the structural integrity and operational reliability of essential facilities over the long term.

  • Environmental Risk Mitigation

    Our expert team develops advanced and highly sophisticated predictive models specifically designed to effectively manage, anticipate, and mitigate the risks associated with various natural hazards, including seismic events, floods, and landslides. This proactive approach enables more reliable risk assessment and supports safer project planning and execution.

Technology & Tools at the Core

The Ndola HQ is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to deliver precise and reliable data.

  • Aerial Mapping: DJI Matrice 350 RTK for high-precision aerial surveys and monitoring.

  • 3D Mobile Scanning: GeoSLAM ZEB Horizon for rapid and accurate 3D mapping of complex environments.

  • Subsurface Investigation: Advanced seismic, electrical resistivity, and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) systems for detailed subsurface analysis.

Software Suite: A complete set of GIS, Remote Sensing, and 3D modelling software for data processing, interpretation, and predictive simulations.

Training the Next Generation: The Global Exchange Program

GGM.EARTH is committed to fostering talent through our Internship, Training, and Academy program, creating a dynamic link between Italy and Zambia.

  • Inbound to Italy: We welcome students and professionals from Zambia and across the globe to our Italian headquarters for advanced on-studio and on-field training with cutting-edge tools.

  • Outbound to Zambia: Trained professionals become part of the permanent team at the Ndola HQ, ensuring effective knowledge transfer and strengthening local capacity.

  • Academic Bridge: We are eager to initiate a collaboration and look forward to establishing a strong partnership with the University of Lusaka. Through this alliance, we aim to advance applied research, develop joint programs, and offer professional certifications, fostering mutual growth and academic excellence.
