Description

Mineral Exploration: Practical Application is a comprehensive guide to the practical aspects of mineral exploration, covering all stages of the process from target generation to feasibility study. Written by a team of experts with decades of experience in the field, the book provides a wealth of practical advice and real-world examples.

The book is divided into three parts:

Part I: Target Generation covers the methods and techniques used to identify potential mineral deposits. This includes geological mapping, remote sensing, geophysics, and geochemical sampling.
Part II: Exploration Drilling provides a detailed overview of the different types of drilling rigs and methods used in mineral exploration. This includes shallow drilling, deep drilling, and directional drilling.
Part III: Feasibility Study covers the economic and technical aspects of evaluating a mineral deposit. This includes resource estimation, mine design, and financial analysis.

Mineral Exploration: Practical Application is an essential resource for anyone involved in the mineral exploration industry, from geologists and geophysicists to mining engineers and financial analysts. The book is also a valuable reference for students and researchers interested in the field of mineral exploration.
