AIG-GSAQ-ALS Global Monthly Technical Meeting Series August 2024


               

Exploration Experience and using Data Mining Soil/Stream Sediment Geochemistry for targeting based on West Charter Towers District (QLD)

Presented by Geoff Beckitt (GB GeoSolutions Consulting / Rockland Resources Exploration Manager) 

The journey of a junior explorer will be shared: covering project generation, effective exploration methods, and the use of data mining to interpret stream and soil sediment geochemistry. It is argued that data mining should be used to remove cover and background geological effects from soil and stream geochemistry before combining in a probabilistic manner to effectively highlight subtle anomalies and complex mineral system patterns. Examples will be provided from the western part of the Charters Towers District, a globally recognised gold district in Queensland.
