Description

Integrative geophysics Under cover: getting images of the Unknown Unknowns. The goal of the project is the collaborative development of an integrated multidisciplinary geophysical modelling algorithm to improve our capability to image rocks under cover in Australia. The project will generalise a new gravity anomaly modelling code with the integration of other datasets through the integration of physics, statistical analyses, deep learning and geological modelling. Expected outcomes include the capability to model ‘unknown unknowns’ such as the number of rock units under cover or their relationships together with the associated uncertainty. This will reduce mineral exploration risks and support the identification of prospects for targeted exploration, all while answering scientific challenges.. Scheme: Early Career Industry Fellowships. Field: 3706 - Geophysics. Lead: Dr Jeremie Giraud
