2-day In-person Seminar on Extracting Information from Geochemical Data at Salt Lake City, UT

Overview:

Most specialists strongly recommend to sample every meter of the drill core or of a trench and to use multi element analysis, rather than just asking the laboratory for gold test. There are also many other types of analysis that are ignored by the industry. But even when such analyses are requested, most of the time the fed geologist is not well trained on the necessary techniques and methods to extract all the information contained in the data.

• Geologists
• Geochemists
• Exploration personnel
• Graduate students
• Postgraduate students
