... Lisheen is a major lead-zinc-silver deposit located in the Rathdowney Trend in Ireland that was mined until 2015. In this study, we collected 130 core samples from the ore body and host rocks at the Lisheen deposit and analyzed the relationship between variations in the content of the three main...

... Several Zn-Pb massive sulphide bodies have been discovered in the Limerick Syncline as part of the Pallas Green and Stonepark prospects in the Irish Zn-Pb Orefield. The Limerick Syncline has many similarities to other Irish-type Zn-Pb deposits, the main difference being that the mineralization...

... porphyry deposits, similar to those previously found in ZTEM surveys over other porphyry deposits in the Western Cordillera. A semiautomated mineral targeting approach was implemented that uses a machine-learning (ML) assisted method that combines: Structural Complexities (SC), Self-Organizing Map (SOM...

... is a proxy for mineralisation, muontomography can complement existing exploration techniques in both near-mine and early-stage settings. Previously, Ideon Technologies, Inc. has successfully deployed muon tomography to map MVT and VMS-type base metal deposits, as well as unconformity-hosted uranium deposits...

... The targeting of orogenic gold deposits under cover is challenging, requiring a holistic and multi-disciplinary mineral systems approach. Orogenic gold deposits are structurally controlled, and it is also considered as a Self- Organized Critical (SOC) ore system. One of the defining attributes...

... The Bathurst Mining Camp (BMC) in New Brunswick is one of Canada’s oldest mining areas for volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits producing 30% of Canada’s Zn, 53% of its Pb and 17% of its Ag. The area underwent extensive geophysical surveying in the 1990s and early 2000’s, that included...

... The impetus to better leverage hard rock seismic for detection and characterization of mineral deposits grows stronger as exploration and mining move deeper. The world class Olympic Dam deposit, located in South Australia, is the flagship deposit of the IOCG (iron-oxide copper gold) class...

... for geoscientists and engineers; nonetheless, these challenges can be overcome using historically proven petroleum and mining techniques, specifically seismic inversion and magnetotellurics, to characterize subsurface reservoirs. Our study uses these tools to interpret the depositional facies and fluid contacts...

... The focus of this study was to characterize the sedimentology and geo-body architecture of the coarse-grained Decie Ranch and Sullivan Peak Members of the Skinner Ranch Formation in order to better understand the origin and deposition of these interpreted lowstand deposits. The Lower Permian...

... The Permian Basin is one of the most prolific in the United States, accounting for around 20% of the national production. Great part of this hydrocarbon volumes come from the Guadalupian San Andres and Grayburg Formations, which are examples of mixed carbonate siliciclastic deposits. The San...

... The source(s) of the metal ions in carbonate-hosted Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) ore deposits remain unclear. To constrain the source(s) and assess any potential relationship to the MVT ores, geochemical analyses of organic-rich black shales of the Mid-continent US were...

... In the Holocene compound clinoforms are well recognized, but there are very few examples in the rock record. Utilizing 191 m of measured section of exposed highstand Orinoco delta deposits along the southwest coast of Trinidad, three main facies associations (FAs) were identified: FA1: up to 35...

... River delta deposits hold significant hydrocarbon resources and “fluvio-deltaic” environments were some of the first developed along the northern Gulf of Mexico and in other parts of the world. The rise of Carbon Capture and Storage projects will further increase focus on reservoirs in fluvial...
