Probing Radiometric Ore Readings and Equilibrium Limits
An expert explains the limits of logging probes in estimating ore thickness and grade. Radiometric readings depend on ore surrounding the probe, equilibrium timing, borehole geometry, and tube length, making precise conclusions unreliable without chemical analysis and proper sampling.
Careful survey guidance for narrow ore seams
The text advises cautious evaluation of narrow ore seams with close readings and expert analysis. It notes constant probe readings, variable survey widths from inches to 20 inches, and deducting Geiger tube width from measurements. It emphasizes slow surveys and competent geology review before development decisions.
