Book synopsis

Providing a balance between principles and practice, this introduction to geophysical surveying takes readers from the basic physical phenomena, through the acquisition and processing of geophysical data, to the creation of subsurface models and geological interpretation to find hidden ore bodies. Detailed descriptions of the key surveying techniques are given, including gravity, magnetic, radiometric, electrical, electromagnetic and seismic methods, and each technique is presented in a consistent format, using non-mathematical language. The surveying techniques are connected with interpretation topics such as petrophysics, modeling, and the identification of noise in geophysical datasets. Packed with full-color figures which are also available online, the text is richly supported by numerous globally-selected case studies from a range of mineral deposit types. Designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in mining exploration, this book is also a valuable reference source for professionals in the mining industry wishing to make greater use of geophysical methods.
