TITLE APPLICATION OF ASD and HYLOGGING SPECTRAL DATA to EXPLORATION and<br />
MINING: GETTING IT RIGHT and MAKING IT WORK FOR YOUR PROJECT AREA.<br />
LOCATION CONGRESS VENUE<br />
ORGANISERS AusSpec <strong>International</strong><br />
PRESENTERS Dr Sasha Pontual AusSpec <strong>International</strong><br />
SUMMARY The workshop will provide participants with a coordinated and consistent way of<br />
using ASD and Hylogging spectral data effectively in exploration and mining.<br />
The workshop addresses four core topics:<br />
1. The Principles – Getting all the information out of spectral data. Common errors in<br />
spectral processing. How to interpret mixed spectra correctly.<br />
2. Measurement Issues – The importance of good quality spectra. How to collect the<br />
best spectra, including QA/QC and sample requirements.<br />
3. Data Interpretation– How to waste time interpreting spectra. Interpreting spectra<br />
effectively and efficiently. What are the processing options? Is there an easy way?<br />
4. Data Handling – Single spectra to 3D models. Context is everything. Discussion of<br />
case studies and examples to demonstrate the down hole, section, surface and 3D<br />
applications of the output data.<br />

SUMMARY Geoethics as a discipline at the intersection of geosciences and ethics can serve<br />
as a universal means of achieving progress towards a more sustainable world. It<br />
involves a new way of thinking in relation to understanding unavoidable Earth and<br />
planetary processes (such as the devastating earthquakes and tsunamis), global<br />
sustainability and future trends. The short course and workshop will cover the<br />
importance of education at all levels, sound legislative processes and governance,<br />
appropriate measures for minimizing losses and damages, effective monitoring<br />
systems, responsible production of natural resources, corporate social responsibility,<br />
international solidarity, etc. Participants will be invited to discuss their own<br />
experiences and make suggestions.<br />
