Episode 222: The Seismic Approach to Mining Geophysics (Heather Schijns)

“History is telling us that we’re likely to get some new discoveries from introducing seismic into our mixture. Nobody understands mineral deposits like the geoscientists who work on them day in, day out.”

Dr. Heather Schijns explores the groundbreaking use of hard rock seismic data in mineral exploration with insights from one of the most popular papers at IMAGE 2023. Heather explains why now is the perfect time for the mining industry to embrace seismic methods, especially as the search for base metal resources deepens and conventional geophysical approaches face limitations. She also makes a compelling business case for seismic exploration, urging listeners to consider the value and risk reduction seismic data can provide.

Episode 105: Why now is the right time for mining geophysics

In this episode, host Andrew Geary speaks with Jean Legault on mining geophysics, the featured special section in February’s The Leading Edge. In this conversation, Jean highlights the similarities and differences of mining geophysics with seismic, why now is a great time to be a mining geophysicist, and the growth of machine learning in the field. There’s something in this interview for everyone. Seismic Soundoff · 105: Why now is the right time for mining
