Integration of Geology, Geophysics, Geochemistry and Imagery for Mineral Exploration Applications

Today’s geologists have unprecedented access to multi-disciplinary geoscientific data and information. The problem in this “dataand informationrich” environment lies in implementing efficient approaches for verifying and integrating all available data and information. Effective integration leads directly to increased success potential and reduced exploration risk. Data verification is particula...

geology, alteration, mineralization, petrogenesis, geochronology, geochemistry and airborne geophysics of kuh shah prospecting area, sw birjand

the kuh shah prospecting area is located in tertiary volcano-plutonic belt of the lut block. more than seventeen subvolcanic intermediate to acidic intrusive rocks, diorite to syenite in composition, were identified in the study area. the intrusions are related to hydrothermal alteration zones and contain argillic, propylitic, advanced argillic, silicified, quartz-sericite-pyrite, gossan and hy...

Reservoir geophysics

The concept of petroleum reservoir geophysics is relatively new. In the past, the role of geophysics was largely confined to exploration and, to a lesser degree, the development of discoveries. As cost-efficiency has taken over as a driving force in the economics of the oil and gas industry and as major assets near abandonment, geophysics has increasingly been recognized as a tool for improving...
