M.Sc. student wanted - Mining Geophysics

Inconsistent core logging practices can lead to overly-complex  
geological models for gold deposits. This is one of the conclusions  
reached by Yorbeau Resources for its Augmitto Block.  This insight was  
achieved by re-logging core. The Piché Group was identified as the  
most prospective unit in terms of its potential for gold production.
The  first objective of this M.Sc. project is to study the  
petrophysical signature of the Piché and the other groups at this site  
to determine if they can be automatically identified solely on  
physical properties that can be measured downhole. The second  
objective will be to characterise the veins and veinlets that are  
associated with the economic gold grades using optical televiewer  
imagery (OTV).

The project is fully funded for 2 years through the Metal Earth Canada  
First Research Excellence Fund to Laurentian University of Sudbury and  
its partners. The project involves field data acquisition during the  
summer along with validation and analysis of the results using mineral  
chemistry analysis such as uXRF and SEM-MLA. The results will be  
leveraged by Metal Earth researchers to further their understanding of  
mineral endowment and the effect it has on the physical properties  
that can be measured.
