Diamond exploration may be broken down into three general stages Early Exploration Targeting and Evaluation When each stage is successful the end result is generally a pre feasibility study which outlines in considerable detail the design of the mine together with the sequence of ore extraction Pre feasibility studies consider the
In essence what is defined here as the exploration strategy is to address the question as to whether one should start an exploration campaign from scratch—working from the unknown—or build on the previous work—working from the known—conducted by previous campaigns The former is called greenfield exploration and is defined as exploration in

Introduction to Gold Mining Gold has captivated people for a very long time thanks to its rareness and beauty The Allure of Gold Exploration Gold has been a big driving force behind exploration and mining efforts for centuries People went to faraway lands looking for gold using methods like panning This led to many gold rushes such
Induced polarization IP is the Earth s capacity to hold an electric charge over time IP measures the voltage decay curve after the injected current is shut off The higher the IP the longer over time the charge is held—IP decays over time typically a few seconds but sometimes up to minutes and will eventually disappear IP is especially useful for mineral
