Currently, elemental assay and petrophysical information is provided after the hole has been completed; often weeks afterwards.

Also, the borehole conditions during drilling are usually better compared to wireline logging; there is less drilling fluid invasion than during the logging.</p> <p>Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) offers a means to perform elemental analysis while drilling. In this project we are using computer simulations and laboratory measurements to calculate the sensitivity of the PGNAA technique to a range of elements relevant for mineral exploration. We currently operate a state-of-the-art electronic neutron generator which we use to expose rock samples to neutron radiation. The resulting gamma rays are detected and analysed to estimate elemental concentration.

While currently used seismic methods provide the highest resolution among the remote sensing methods, they often considered expensive, lack direct interpretability and depth control.

However, hard rock seismic exploration still needs to deal with a number of challenges including low S/N ratio, complex geological structures, high attenuation, strong ground roll and guided waves and often thick and variable cover. Additionally, a robust seismic interpretation requires a priori geological knowledge, well designed and processed seismic data as well as borehole control over the survey area.</p> <p>Currently, hard rock seismic data interpretation is a qualitative exercise relying heavily on the experience and expertise of the interpreter. A quantitative interpretation (QI) utilising seismic attribute sections/cubes tied to physical properties down boreholes would be a significant step up in the level of information extracted from the seismic data.</p> <p>The first stage to this project involves a trial of various AI inversion techniques on an arbitrary 2D line extracted from a 3D volume.

Indeed, seismic methods simultaneously join resolution and depth of investigation, which are attractive characteristics as mineral deposits are becoming deeper or are concealed under a thick cover of rocks and sediments. However, seismic interpretation of mineral deposits still remains largely speculative due to highly complex geological structures, scarcity of boreholes and laboratory data, and poor knowledge of the effect of the various features and processes in place (e.g. geochemical alterations, shearing, fractures developments and sealing, texture alteration) in the seismic response.</p> <p>Gold deposits in particular are extremely challenging as the ore is in low concentration. They are however associated with faults and sheared zones, and may present characteristic alteration zones when related with particular host rocks. The goal of this study is thus to identify and quantify the effect that features such as mineralogy, texture, structure, anisotropy, etc. have on the seismic signal. To do so, 2 datasets of cores from 2 mines sites in Western Australia, Karari and Thunderbox mines operated by Saracen Gold Mines Pty Ltd, have been used. The workflow consists in characterizing in the laboratory about 100 core plugs (or a subset of for some characterization techniques) to obtain petrophysical, petrological and textural data. This extensive, multi-physics dataset is then interpreted using rock physics principles, which allows to relate rock properties to their seismic attributes in a way that is consistent with their geological environment. Last these data and rock physics relationships are used to constrain seismic forward modelling at the Thunderbox site and compared with recent 2D seismic surveys performed at that mine site.</p> <p>Ultimately this work will improve our understanding of the seismic signature of gold deposits which are often found in overwhelmingly complex geological settings.</p> <p>For more details, please
