| Mineral Exploration |
Minerals and metals are one of the essential components for the growth
of human society. Needs of survival taught the prehistoric Paleolithic men the
uses of stones as tools even before 20,000 years ago. The discovery of
minerals, its exploitation and uses became many folds with the advent of
civilization and is continuing till date.
A mineral deposit, more meaningfully concentration of specific mineral,
is too small a size in comparison to the Earth’s crust. Deposits near the
surface had been discovered over the centuries, mined out and metals extracted.
Future searches will be aimed at naturally occurring concealed types.
It may rarely show surface signatures like weathered outcrop and are covered
under transported soil. The new discovery will not be easy. It will require
state-of-the-art exploration techniques, trained man power, scientific
knowledge, ample experience, high-end data processing system and interpretation
skill. The total procedure would be achieved step by step in a dynamic and
logical sequence.
