The goal of mineral exploration is to discover ore bodies (concentrated deposits of minerals) that can be mined economically. This essential industry activity involves several stages, from preliminary research and data analysis to detailed drilling and sampling. Each step of the process yields valuable data, enabling exploration …

Abstract. 3D geomodelling, a computer method for modelling and visualizing geological structures in three spatial dimensions, is a common exploration tool used in oil and gas since more than several decades. When adding time, 4D modelling allows reproducing the dynamic evolution of geological structures, and reconstructing the past …

There are two basic strategies: (a) Working from the known. Deposits tend to form in clusters in prolific belts, and exploration occurs outward from known mineralization. (b) Working from the unknown. If you review all available information, prospective areas with potential for discoveries can be identified. 2.
