Stage of Geological Research of a Region
Geology studies the
composition of both surface rocks and those of deep mineral deposits
(solid, liquid and gas), the structure of the planet, tectonic plates of
the Earth’s shell, its fluid successive layers, which are located
between the solid shell of the earth surface and its hard core, composed
mainly of melted heavy elements, subject to very high pressures.
The first stage of geological research
of a region starts with mapping the land, paying particular emphasis to
the surface rocks. Follows prospective phase with grooves on the
surface, and surface drilling to develop geological profiles, taking
samples (samples to determine the content), these data will be included
in a geological map scaled with alignments (curves level).
The extrapolation method can predict the
position of deep rocks, a detailed examination at the microscopic level
provides information on mineralogical composition and paleontology
(fossils) of rocks.
Data obtained by direct methods of geological prospecting may be completed with data obtained by indirect methods such as geophysical investigations.
Geological mapping for exploration
- Geological mapping
- Geological studies for mineral substances
- Geological-technical studies for laying out the research works/mining, example: water drillings, geological drillings, quarries etc.
- Mapping mining works
- Mapping drillings, physical and chemical analysis, analyze the data
- Data processing, statically analysis, drawing maps, interpretation
- Project plans, strategies for development of the projects.
Types of documentation with geological character and geological-technical character
- Geological reports in stage and final of the estimate reserves
- Study of feasibility
- Geological documentation
- Evaluation and monitoring studies
- Ambient geology
