Mineral Exploration:
ClearView Geophysics Inc. carries out ground-based geophysical surveys for
Junior and Major Mining Companies. Common targets include gold, base metals
and diamonds. Mining companies identify favourable geologic environments at
the regional scale. In order to accomplish this, the following data are
typically compiled:
airborne geophysical data
gravity data
government geology data
From this compilation, favourable local areas can be prioritized for further
evaluation. At the local level, available geology, geochemistry and
geophysics data are evaluated and compiled. At this stage it can be
determined whether additional ground-based work is required. For example, if
the area has a history of gold mineralization associated with fine-grained
sulphides, then an IP/res survey may be appropriate.
The local and regional scale geophysical data can be post-processed. By
combining sophisticated computer modeling techniques with years of
interpretive experience, the client gets a list of exploration targets that
are prioritized for drilling and sampling.
