SRK Masterclass – Applied Structural Geology for Mining, Resource and Exploration Geologists


Short Course:

Applied Structural Geology for Mining, Resource and Exploration Geologists


Available: 24 November, 9:00 am to 26 November, 1:00 pm GMT

This applied structural geology course is designed for mining, resource and exploration geologists involved in deposit-scale data collection mapping and core logging, data analysis or 3D geological modelling.

It aims to give geologists the basic relevant theoretical and practical skill set to allow them to recognise and make observations of key structural features in the field and in drillcore, and help them incorporate and interpret that data successfully in their 3D geological models.

No previous experience in Leapfrog software is required although some working knowledge or other 3D modelling experience is preferred.

Attendees will benefit from improved confidence and efficiency in interpreting and measuring structures and will gain an understanding that successful recognition of structural controls will result in more robust and cost effective geological models, and helps to reduce the inherent risk associated with exploration targeting and resource estimation.

Key topics covered:

  • Basic principles of structural geology
  • Structural controls on ore deposits
  • Faults, folds, shears and fluid flow
  • Practical advice on data collection
  • Collecting and analysing structural data in drill core Incorporating and interpreting structural data 3D
