Course overview
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to geophysical surveying for resource exploration and development, from regional to mine site scales.
- Potential Fields
- Electrical & Electromagnetic Surveying
- Passive & Active Seismology
- Hands-on Field Surveying
Course learning outcomes
- Design geophysical survey acquisition plans that target resource exploration and development objectives at regional to mine site scales
- Process and/or transform raw geophysical survey data into regularised, interpretable form
- Interpret processed or regularised geophysical survey datasets to reveal underlying geological rock type architecture or resource development phenomena
- Simulate the geophysical response of idealised or interpreted geological model architectures
- Plan geophysical monitoring strategies under resource development scenarios based on baseline geophysical survey data
- Characterise resource model uncertainty determined from a variety of geophysical survey datasets
