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.
