Our specialist services

 

Desk-Based Assessment

The initial stage of formulating a site investigation strategy often involves an examination of the existing geological resources pertaining to an area, such as maps, archives and existing borehole records.

 

Borehole Surveys

ARCA offers a range of borehole drilling services for the investigation of sedimentary sequences buried too deeply for conventional excavation.

Deposit Modelling

ARCA has extensive experience of using geotechnical and other borehole data to generate deposit models, as well as composite stratigraphic cross sections.

 

Pleistocene and Palaeolithic geoarchaeology

ARCA is one of very few commercial organisations specialising in the Old Stone Age or Palaeolithic period. We investigate deeply buried stratigraphy dating back hundreds of thousands of years and potentially containing evidence of early or pre-modern human activity.
