Mining & Exploration
Geoforce
provides a coherent strategy for definition and detection of mineral
resources. We have considerable experience working in mines, and on mine
sites. Our key focus areas include Brownfield and Greenfield mineral
exploration, second phase mineral exploration and ore body delineation.
A summary of the geophysical techniques available for mineral exploration
applications are as follows (but not limited to):
- Airborne Electromagnetic Surveying - SKYTEM is an
approach for high definition detailed cross-sectional mapping for iron
ore, nickel laterites, bauxite and nickel sulphides. SKYTEM can also be
used to map groundwater and paleochannels.
- Time Domain Electromagnetics - surface, in mine and
downhole (DHEM) using the Atlantis Fluxgate Probe. The
Atlantis Fluxgate Probe has superior range in the delineation of
large, high grade world class ore bodies which may be missed using coil
probes.
- Borehole Radar (BHR) - reflection, transmission and
tomography for detailed structure and ore delineation.
- Magnetics - surface mapping.
- Radiometrics - shallow surface to assist with soil
mapping.
- Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI) - surface and
downhole resistivity imaging with a multi channel system.
- Induced Polarization (IP) - surface surveys for
exploration of disseminated targets. IP provides cross sections of the
changeability and resistivity of the subsurface. Hyperspectral Imaging -
processing and interpretation services for this surface mapping
technology.
