Description
Ore Dogs and Economic Geology: Developments in Exploration Methods and Technologies blends the latest developments in hydrocarbon exploration methods and technologies with the revolutionary ore dog approach to locating new and lucrative prospective mining locations.
This book offers these solutions through a range of revolutionary and cutting edge new methods: the use of ore dogs who are trained specifically to locate prospective new hydrocarbon locations; rapid 3D mapping to create exploration efficiencies; laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), which is a type of atomic emission spectroscopy that uses a highly energetic laser pulse to more accurate assess mining sites.
The hydrocarbon exploration industry is suffering from the heavy burden of increasing costs and very long investment schemes. Where do companies look for new discoveries where most are already found? The industry is hungry for methods that offer cost efficient solutions to these problems and ways to create mining projects more cost efficient.
Edited by a renowned consultant and global leader in economic geology with contributions from a range of leading geophysicists and geochemists, this book will serve both as a 'how-to' reference and a cutting edge tool kit for hydrocarbon exploration.
