2015 ROUNDUP PREVIEW Short Course 8 • 3D Integrated Interpretation for Deep Exploration Targeting Sunday, January 25 Presented by: Mira Geoscience Ltd. Integration of geology, geophysics and geochemistry becomes increasingly essential as exploration focuses on depos- its at greater depths, and integrated inter- pretation demands that geoscientists of all disciplines collaborate. The petroleum industry concept of cross-disciplinary teams sharing a common earth model ( CEM) must be adopted for deep mineral exploration. Mira Geoscience has been developing tools and methodologies for 3D integrated interpretation in mineral exploration for many years, and presents this short course using the Lalor Lake VMS deposit to demonstrate the principles and practicalities of the CEM approach. Integrated modelling and interpretation of geophysical and geological data will be emphasized, and correlated with geo- chemical data. Using the Lalor CEM, VMS targets are generated and ranked in 3D via analysis of multi-disciplinary criteria. This course complements Short Course 7, "3D Integrated Interpretation: Geologic Modelling," given by the Geological Survey of Canada on Saturday, January 24. Registration to both courses is encouraged.
