Metalliferous Applications
|
|
| The borehole RIM2 system can be deployed either underground or above ground to delineate ore reserves between boreholes. Typical applications are to prove ore continuity between boreholes or to delineate fault boundaries. The photos below show the RIM2 system deployed in a Queensland underground base metal mine. Picture of system in action showing Winches and operator (1 km underground). |

| Here the tools were deployed in a drill hole fan with hole angles from 40 to 90 degrees. Borehole water temperature here was around 55 degC! | |

| The image below shows an example tomogram from a base metal mine. The high attenuation area is a pod of massive sulphide not intersected by either drill hole. | |
