Uplift GroupLogo Design Contest

Contract geologist, going into the field to provide services in exploration for minerals around the world.
It's called Uplift as I would be helping the company out, and also uplifting samples and material from the earth for them.
Office is based in New Zealand so perhaps a kiwi touch on the design would be okay.

Update: see that a few entries have a drop of water but note that I dont do water or oil exploration.

Update: Perhaps subtle koru design on the side may work
