About this book
Mineral Exploration: Principles and Applications for a Sustainable Future, Third Edition presents the current state of mineral exploration, along with innovations that will power a sustainable future. Sections cover economic mineral deposits, photogeology, remote sensing, and geographic information systems. This is followed by a review of exploration geology, geochemistry, and geophysics. Next, from a more practical perspective, are chapters on sampling methods, mineral resources, ore reserve estimation, and statistical and geostatistical applications. Other topics include exploration modeling, mineral economics, and mineral processing. Looking ahead, the book closes with chapters on environmental system management for green energy and machine learning and artificial intelligence in mineral exploration. This leading text offers researchers and engineers the latest knowledge and understanding in mineral exploration with ample resources for sustainable development efforts.
