The Sinian system has been used in more than 12 mines inside and outside Zijin Mining Group, such as Tongshan copper mine, Yixingzhai gold mine, Ashele copper-zinc mine, Peki copper mine, Tengjia gold mine, Xiaonangou gold mine and Zhongtiaoshan gold mine etc., with remarkable achievements.
1. For porphyry, VMS and other metal deposits closely related to sulfide, carry out 3D IP exploration, obtain clear 3D resistivity and polarizability models, correspond to the spatial positions of geological structure framework and mineralization alteration zone, and keep consistent with drilling verification results, with effective exploration depths of 1,000 ~ 1,500 meters.
2. For a number of brownfield and greenfield projects, carry out high-power large-polar distance IP gradient survey. Compared with conventional IP gradient survey, significantly improve operation efficiency and application effects. The spatial positions of high-polarization, medium-low resistivity anomaly zones and structural mineralization and alteration zones are consistent.
3. In the strong interference environment of production mines, carry out 2D IP sounding, with the effective exploration depth over 800 meters. The spatial positions of inverse high-polarization, medium-low resistivity anomalous bodies are corresponding to those of metallogenic geologic bodies. The geological – geophysical prospecting prediction model established can direct the new prospecting discoveries in those zones at high working level.
4. Based on the advantages of high-power and high-voltage emission and continuous full waveform time domain acquisition of the Sinian system, solve the problem that exploration depth of IP method is restricted by electromagnetic coupling in the coverage area, and provide technical support for a new round of prospecting breakthrough to expand the exploration space in the coverage area.
