Resource Assessment

This course consists of the realization of two resource evaluation projects based on case studies applied in the mining and petroleum fields. The student will have access to the digital imaging platform. They will be introduced to the use of specific interpretation and evaluation software that will allow them to manipulate the data sets provided (software such as Techlog, Coralis, Petrel, etc.). The results resulting from the interpretation of these data will be relocated in a synthetic and argued way in the form of two reports or presentations.

The aim is to reinvest all the knowledge acquired by the student during the first 3 semesters through projects. Students will learn how to use appropriate tools, implement a typical geological exploration workflow, and draw up an expert report within a given timeframe, as required in industry when a study is entrusted to a team of geologists upstream of a project.

All knowledge acquired in S1, S2 and S3 is required.

Projects are evaluated in the form of two reports.

Learn how to use the software, load and interpret a dataset, produce a 3D or conceptual model, estimate a reserve, report.
