[QUOTE="user 12139, post: 611825, member: 12139"] Infrared, near infrared, spectral, thermal-infrared, short-wave technology blah blah blah - I'm well aware of whats out there Like I said earlier, unless you have offset mine data all the satellite data is nearly irrelevant and worthless, so here's why I said you've a lot of work to do.. ground work, feet on the ground. Like any new technology, the people selling it rant, rave and swear by it, thats fine and they're probably right, but all to often they're not comprehensive or telling the big picture. I'm simply highlighting what [u]you also need[/u] for it to be successful in any capacity. ANY data is totally useless unless you have offset data or benchmarks, thats the first thing they teach you in data acquisition / interpretation. If your working daily with this technology then surely your aware of what offset data is, then again maybe your not privileged to this info where you work which would be unfortunate for you because its a necessity. Question's: Why do they drill and cut many cores for just one mine site? Why dont they can coring and just go off satellite data? If offset data isn't required, how do you interpret the satellite data? After you have all that satellite data, whats the next step in the mining process to pinpoint exactly where the gold or resource is?? [/QUOTE]
