Subtle variations in the measured properties can be used to determine the abundance and composition of key minerals at Earth's surface. For example, specific spectral absorption features and ...
Surface methods, however, require that the mineralisation will be close to the surface, and the truth is that most of the ore deposits that satisfy that requirement have already been found. This is where geophysical methods come into place. Gravimetric, magnetic and seismic studies probe the earth below the surface and may provide exploration ...
