One-Day Workshop – School of Earth Sciences

Fusion and interpretation of drilling-derived datasets for better exploration and mining

Date & Time

Date: 16th July 2021
Time: 9 am to 5 pm

Location

Live online with access to the recording for those who have registered and are in a different time zone.

This one-day online course is for geologists who are using drill results in combination with other datasets to make decisions on exploration strategy, drill targeting, resource definition and mining.

Who should attend

The course is suitable for geologists of any experience level, working in mineral systems with poor outcrop, complex structure, geophysics and geochemistry, including minerals explorers, mine geologists, researchers and students.

Course content

The main focus of the course is on the use of drilling-derived data, including core photography, down-hole geochemical data, logging data, structural data, and additional data derived from tools such as spectral tools or scans, magnetic susceptibility etc.

Prerequisite

Participants will use the following provided datasets: core photography, downhole geochemical data, geophysical/rock properties data, and structural data. A good working knowledge of Excel is required; prior experience with Leapfrog, ioGAS and stereographic projection software will be beneficial but is not essential. Instructions for accessing this software, the core photography data package, and the relevant datasets, will be made available upon registration.
