Unlocking the Value of Structural Geology in Mining, Exploration & 3D Modelling

Conference Workshop:

Unlocking the Value of Structural Geology in Mining, Exploration & 3D Modelling

SRK and Seequent invite you to an immersive two-day Structural Geology and 3D Modelling Short Course, designed to sharpen your skills in structural data collection.

Through hands-on exercises using drill core samples and structural data from real deposits, you’ll build confidence in collecting, analysing and interpreting data. This is applied geology at its best - practical, relevant and immediately transferable to your work.

Participants will learn how to integrate applied structural geology with 3D geological modelling and gain insights that support better decision-making across near-mine operations, brownfields and greenfields exploration, and resource estimation.

Date

Thursday 23 April: 9:00am – 5:00pm | Friday 24 April: 9:00am – 4:00pm

Location

Queensland Geological Survey Core Library - Zillmere

  • The importance of structural geology to exploration and mining projects
  • Measuring and acquisition methodology in the field and using drill core
  • Effective QAQC of structural data
  • How to analyse, interpret and visualise structural data in stereographic nets and in 3D
  • Practical experience building structural 3D models in Leapfrog Geo
  • A better understanding of structure and deposit geology through 3D integration and modelling
  • How to interpret structural data to determine the controls for modelling mineralisation
