Geological Engineer
BS Geological Engineering, Colorado School of Mines
Ashton Campie joined BRS, Inc. as a Geological Engineer in 2026 after earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Geological Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines. Prior to joining BRS, he completed a geotechnical engineering internship with Terracon Consultants, where he gained practical experience in geotechnical investigations, environmental site characterization, and field testing.
Mr. Campie has experience evaluating subsurface conditions through soil and groundwater investigations, including field monitoring, sampling, boring investigations, and soil classification. He has assisted with the interpretation of geologic and environmental data to support engineering recommendations and has contributed to the preparation of proposals for geotechnical projects. His experience also includes supporting geophysical investigations, including field electrical resistivity (FER) and seismic vibration testing.
In addition to his geotechnical field experience, Mr. Campie has worked in research laboratories at the Colorado School of Mines, where he assisted with soil and mineral characterization projects. His laboratory experience includes sample preparation and testing using ball mills, centrifuges, shake plates, hydrochloric acid (HCl), and other laboratory equipment for barium chloride (BaCl₂) water extraction experiments involving materials ranging from sandstone to asphalt. He is familiar with advanced mineral characterization technologies, including the TESCAN Integrated Mineral Analyzer (TIMA), Advanced Mineral Analysis and Characterization System (AMICS), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM).
Mr. Campie’s combination of field investigation experience, laboratory research, and technical training provides a strong foundation for supporting geologic, geotechnical, environmental, and mine reclamation projects.
