Geophysical surveys

Geophysical surveys are invaluable tools in mineral exploration, utilizing the physical properties of rocks to uncover subsurface geological structures and potential mineral deposits. Employing techniques such as magnetic surveys, gravity surveys, electrical resistivity surveys, and seismic surveys, geophysicists can discern variations in rock composition, density, and conductivity beneath the Earth’s surface. These methods aid in identifying structural features like faults and folds, detecting the presence of ore bodies, and offering insights into the subsurface geology. By interpreting the data obtained from geophysical surveys, exploration teams can make informed decisions about target areas for further exploration, significantly enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of mineral exploration efforts
