This is a paper from (Gandhi & Sarkar, 2016). Geophysics is becoming an increasingly important discovery tool as exploration moves deeper into subsurface. The ability to rapidly iterate and combine data and constrain odels within project timelines is essential for making geophysical modeling a more practical and reliable aid. As explorationists are compelled to look […]

Borehole geophysics
Mining Doc
Introduction Borehole geophysics is the science of recording and analysing measurements of physical properties made in wells or test holes (Borehole Geophysics | U.S. Geological Survey, n.d.). Continuous or point data is obtained using probes and processed to produce geophysical logs. The geophysical responses from targets buried in the earth decrease with increasing depth of […]

Digital Twin of Haul Roads: Is Your Mine Site Ready?
Zhan
Hi everyone, Managing haul roads in mining operations can feel like a constant battle—thousands of data points arriving every second, teams working in silos, and no clear way to turn that information into actionable insights. Sound familiar? That’s where the concept of a digital twin for haul roads comes in. Imagine a web-based platform that […]
Radiometric (Gamma Ray) Method—Aeroradiometric Surveys
Mining Doc
The technique of measurement of natural radiation in the earth’s surface is called “radiometric method” (also known as Gamma ray spectrometry). This is a process in which the unstable atom becomes stable in the process of its nucleus. Energy is released in the form of radiation, viz., alpha, beta, and gamma rays. Radioactive uranium and […]
