Importance of Testing Borehole Core Samples for Mineral Exploration?

Testing borehole core samples is an indispensable practice in the field of mineral exploration. This crucial step holds immense significance for several compelling reasons:

Mineral exploration: The process of identifying, evaluating, and leveraging mineral deposits. It involves different stages, methods, and techniques of data collection, analysis, and reporting.
Regulatory framework: The rules and guidelines for mineral exploration in India, such as the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Act, 2015, the Minerals (Evidence of Mineral Contents) Rules- 2015, and the Mineral Conservation and Development Rules-2017.

Analysis of Borehole Core Samples for Mineral Exploration at Anacon Laboratories

The lithology includes the classification of the rock as well as a description of its physical qualities, such as its kind, texture, colour, and features. Research involves identifying and quantifying the rock’s minerals and their proportions. X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) can achieve this.
A structural analysis Oriented drill core or downhole geophysical investigations can locate and define minerals and rock structures in an ore deposit. Mineral alteration mapping Hyperspectral imaging or geochemical testing can achieve this.Ore bodies with alteration minerals (clay, carbonate, silica, sulphide) show chemical changes from hydrothermal fluids or weathering. Do hyperspectral or geochemical tests.
The analysis of borehole core samples can help geologists and mining engineers to determine the size, shape, and mineral composition of an ore body, as well as its geotechnical properties and economic potential. It can also help to guide further exploration activities, such as drilling, sampling, or geophysical surveys.
