MinProXT 2021 Webinar
The Geological Survey of Finland, in co-operation with the United States Geological Survey, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and the Centre for Exploration Targeting, University of Western Australia, organised the Mineral Prospectivity and Exploration Targeting (MinProXT 2021) webinar.
MinProXT 2021 Abstract Proceedings
After the successful completion of MinProXT 2021 Webinar series, the abstract proceedings publication was released. The publication of proceedings contains 23 extended abstracts, covering the various aspects of mineral prospectivity analysis from the current advances in the methods to the industry perspective on its applicability. Abstract proceedings is available on GTK’s Hakku service (PDF file). Feel free to share it!
Go to abstract proceedings in HakkuMinProXT 2021 featured invited talks by eminent scientists from the mineral exploration industry, research organizations and academic institutions. The primary objective of the webinar was to present ideas on the varied topics related to mineral prospectivity analyses and exploration targeting. The webinar aimed to be a confluence point to foster open discussions and interaction between the predictive mapping research experts, the public sector organization executives, and the experienced professionals from the mining and mineral exploration industry.
A virtual poster session was conducted to encourage participation from students and early career research scientists (but not limited to them only). The speakers of accepted posters had an opportunity to describe their poster as a ‘Lightning Talk’ during the oral sessions. The abstracts related to invited oral presentations and accepted poster presentations were compiled into a book of proceedings of MinProXT 2021 and released online after the webinar.
The two topics that the webinar addressed:
- Theme 1: Advances and recent development in the methods of prospectivity mapping and geoscientific data analyses, and the associated uncertainties, limitations, and challenges.
- Theme 2: Real-world utilization of the prospectivity maps in varied fields such as land-use assignments, infrastructure planning and others in addition to mineral deposit exploration.
