The firm has experience in project management from sample collection to on-site presentation of final products. Most projects are science based and yield either technical reports or testimony in circumstances of litigation. In addition to the technical consulting, GTC maintains a stable Isotope Laboratory that employs a Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometer dedicated to the isotopic analysis of boron (d¹¹B). Boron isotopic analysis is among the newest methods in forensic hydrology because it can provide evaluation of solute source; the analysis is a significant enhancement to geochemical evaluations. Analyses are used consistently in consulting projects but are also available commercially to outside clients.  Isotope Client list is available. 

GTC has both managed projects and participated as a sub-contractor in cases that require geochemical support. Project needs often include the use of many forensic tools including stable and radioactive isotopes, computer simulations using geochemical computer codes, and detailed chemical analyses;  GTC is familiar with and experienced in these methods. 

The principal, R.L. Bassett, Ph.D., has research and project consulting experience with clients in industry; federal, state, and county governments; universities and national laboratories. The firm has its office and isotope laboratory in Waco, Texas.
