In the last 20 years, a number of groups have come to regard geophysical technology as a means to add value and reduce risk at all stages of the minerals cycle: exploration, mining, and subsequent site remediation and monitoring. The workshop will feature presentations by leaders in the industry who will outline how geophysical technology is being used to:
