With the development of high-precision geological observation technology, in situ mineral microanalysis isotope geochemical analysis deep geophysical exploration drilling, real-time mining, remote sensing high-resolution hyperspectral image and supercomputer industrial intelligence, geoscience has entered an era big data artificial intelligence 21st century [...]

Different geophysical methods provide information about various physical properties of rock formations and mineralization. In many cases, this is mutually complementary. At the same time, inversion data for a particular survey subject to considerable uncertainty ambiguity as causative body geometry intrinsic property contrast. One productive approach reducing jointly invert several types data. ...

The impact of public policy on the mineral industries is difficult to measure due little short-term responsiveness changes by companies already investing in known fixed deposits. Nevertheless, early-stage (or grassroots) exploration has been suggested provide early signals about a policy. Among policies, taxation received plenty attention theoretical analysis and simulation studies, but empiric...

The main problem associated with the traditional approach to image classification for the mapping of hydrothermal alteration is that materials not associated with hydrothermal alteration may be erroneously classified as hydrothermally altered due to the similar spectral properties of altered and unaltered minerals. The major objective of this paper is to investigate the potential of a neuro-fuz...

BACKGROUND We present data from a DNA taxonomy register of the abyssal Cnidaria collected as part of the Abyssal Baseline (ABYSSLINE) environmental survey cruise 'AB01' to the UK Seabed Resources Ltd (UKSRL) polymetallic-nodule exploration area 'UK-1' in the eastern Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ), central Pacific Ocean abyssal plain. This is the second paper in a series to provide regional taxon...
