INTRODUCTION
Bell Geospace, a global leader in high-resolution Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry and magnetic surveying services for mineral and energy exploration, is proud to be an exhibitor at PDAC 2024. The purpose of our business is to assist exploration teams quickly and accurately identify and map geology of potential interest for resources.
Recently, we have made significant contributions to mining exploration, particularly over the past year in Europe. Our presence in the region has allowed us to assist mining companies in accurately identifying and mapping the geology of potential mineral resources. Through our advanced airborne geophysical data acquisition and interpretation techniques, we provide valuable insights into subsurface geology and structure, enabling our partners to make informed decisions and strategically maximize exploration efforts.
But we are not limited to operations in Europe! We have aircraft all around the world, can get pretty much anywhere quickly, and are well equipped to carry out mineral exploration projects wherever you have operations.
THE VALUE IN DENSITY CONTRASTS
The superiority of a gravity gradiometer lies in its ability to measure not just gravitational acceleration but also its spatial variation, known as the gravity gradient. This enables detection of subtle changes in density within the Earth's subsurface, which may signify the presence of valuable resources like minerals or hydrocarbons.
Our 2024 booth design celebrates contrasts! Much like how colors and size contrasts accentuate details and distinctions, the gradiometer's sensitivity to density variations highlights subtle differences in the Earth's composition. These contrasts signify diverse geological features such as mineral hosting structural formations, unlocking a spectrum of opportunities for exploration and resource extrapolation.
By leveraging the precision of density contrasts, Bell Geospace technology empowers clients to navigate and capitalize on subsurface potential with clarity and confidence, much like an artist masterfully utilizes color and size contrasts to create a captivating masterpiece.
IMAGE DEEPER UNDERCOVER, AT SCALE, WITHOUT COMPROMISING RESOLUTION
The mines of tomorrow are hidden beneath layers of sedimentary cover or nestled as subtle extensions to known deposits.
While traditional airborne geophysics excel in detecting metal deposits near the surface, they struggle when encountering deeper targets or non-magnetic geological trends.
Exploration teams may seek to deploy high-resolution technologies on surveys with closely spaced lines or stations covering extensive areas. They hope these surveys will capture a broad signal bandwidth to map the deeper extensions and connectivity with shallow structures effectively. However, such practices are not always feasible due to challenging terrain, including water bodies, vegetation, restricted areas, or the significant time and budget required to acquire such data across large areas.
Bell Geospace's FTG technology overcomes many of these limitations where signal bandwidth is important for not only resolving shallow complexity but allow confident mapping at depth. Our latest workflow (find out more in the links below) is designed to do precisely this and will deliver clear insights of structural shapes within a given depth interval.
We want you to be able directly target interesting geology as quickly as possible, and we have the technology, tools and know-how to help.
