CAGE-IN: Constrained Area Gridding for Enhanced Interpretation
CAGE-IN technology enhances existing geophysical data to identify additional targets even in well-explored areas.
- Applicable to several mineral occurrences
- Demonstrated in porphyry, epithermal, and skarn deposit types
- Can be applied on pre-existing surveys as well as in conjunction with fresh acquisition
- CAGE-IN is an integrated interpretation approach that works increasingly well when geological maps, soil/rock geochem data, structural maps, and locations of historical/artisanal workings are available
Gold Proxy Index
Coarse-free gold deposits are a delight for metallurgy and highly profitable — but gold nuggets have an erratic distribution and their point density gets very rare with increasing median grain size, making it virtually impossible to estimate grade by drilling.
Regular statistical requirements are to increase sample size multifold, which becomes unviable after a certain depth.
We have developed a statistical correlation model where the gold grade can be predicted using statistical models of structure, ore chemistry and pathfinders.
Drill Database Corrections
Common sources of error in drill databases are data entry errors. We have developed several multi-level QA/QC routines that clean drilling databases of errors by flagging locations of potential errors.
- Clean databases ready for modelling
- Data validation within defined ranges
- Comparing data records with 3-element and 5-element averages of numerical data
- Comparing multiple entries of text data
- Deviations flagged for supervisory verification
Spectral Classification
Proprietary image classification technology uses spectral signatures to identify mineral prospects over very large areas.
- Works for regional prospect identification as well as high-resolution targeting
- Perfect for shallow mineralization with subtle superficial spectral signatures
- Successful in delineating targets for Cu-Au Porphyry, hydrothermal and lateritic mineralization
- Works on the principle that mineralized bodies have identifiable spectral signatures that affect surface bodies and vegetation
Exploration Applications
- Potential mineral bearing areas within large prospects
- Locate active, abandoned, and artisanal mining areas
Regulatory Applications
- Change in mining activity sites over time
- Illegal mining activities or mining outside concession areas
