MINING

Accurate aerial topographical and Orthophoto maps are a basic necessity for exploration geologists and mining and environmental engineers in order to find an ore deposit and develop a mine.

  • High quality base map
  • Locate historical workings or old roads for easier access
  • Lineament Analysis
  • Determine ice flow direction
  • Map resistant (or recessive) lithologies, faults or veins
  • Locate or follow veins/faults/contacts/dykes even under heavy forest canopy
  • Locate potential drill sites
  • Plan drill access routes
  • Plot accurate drill sections (more likely to get correct interpretation)
  • Archaeology / Environmental studies
  • Locate illegal miners
  • Better topography for geophysics (especially Gravity)
  • Accurate and detailed topo leads to more accurate resource model
  • Slope maps / Topo maps / Wet vs Dry soil maps
  • Roads / power line routes
  • Plan Tailings Storage Facilities
  • Accurately measure volume of rock removed from pit
  • Measure remaining capacity of tailings storage
  • Measure volume of ore / waste piles
