19. Geological Surveys for Explorers and Society

November 08, 2021 17:00 - 53 minutes - 36.7 MB

Globally, the work of geological surveys supports mineral exploration, but also touches on many areas that are fundamental for human society. This week look at the different types of work at three surveys and see how they support exploration, but also wider society. First up is ‘The Capacity Builder’, with Andrew Bloodworth (British Geological Survey) highlighting the work they do globally to support low- and middle-income countries. Much of this support comes in the form of providing digit...

Episode 13: Structure - Solutions for Complex Data

July 27, 2020 14:00 - 45 minutes - 31 MB

Capturing structural geology data is important. Why? As Federico Arboleda (Founder and CEO, Imago) says: "There's no mine unless you can make that [geotechnical] estimation or characterization. And this is the founding data that allows you to define that." So how can we collect this data? With the amount of technologies available, it might be easier than you think. For example, if you already take photos of your core while logging - you’re halfway there. Often the unstructured data (images...

July 13, 2020 17:00 - 50 minutes - 34.7 MB

What should the relationship be between geoscience technology and the communities we’re a part of? The obvious answer is that geoscience technology should be used to enrich the lives of those in our communities. But as Paul Bauman (Technical Director, Worley) says: often the question not asked, is where should the technology come from? Should we be using bottom-up or top-down approaches to develop tech?
