Seismic Prospecting Method. The exploration is based on the production of seismic waves by the detonation of a charge and / or the generation of a vibration producing a disturbance, recording these generated seismic waves, whose subsoil travel provides information of the existing geology in depth, obtaining a Image of structural variations. Seismic methods are divided into two classes: The ...

Geophysical methods may from part of a larger survey and thus geophysicists must be in contact with the whole survey team and particularly to the client. Few, if any geophysical methods provide a unique solution to a particular geological situation. It is possible to obtain a very large number of geophysical solutions to some problems, some of which may be geologically non-sensical. It is ...

This booklet briefly describes basic prospecting techniques—geochemical, geophysical, and combination methods—that can help lead to the discovery of an orebody. An orebody, as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Mines' "Dictionary of Mining, Mineral, and Related Terms" (Thrush and others, 1968), is "a mineral deposit that can be worked at a profit under existing economic conditions."
