Abstract |
: |
As acknowledged that the exploration is the first step before reaching the discovery of profitable economic raw materials. However, it is also representing a high risk financially because it is possible that the areas discovered is not economically worthwhile, at that time the stakeholder will confront difficult return their exploration expenses. Therefore, the exploration process ex-ecuted in multiple stages before increasing expenses for the detection. The business of mineral exploration, one of high cost investment especially if it was in rugged mountain areas, which is difficult to reach and has a very high cost of access, consequentially increased the exploration costs.
The purpose of this investigation for doing this research in rough mountainous area using geospatial technology, can be justified to be valuable, time-saving and cost-reducing. Therefore, we can see that one of the solid factors that helped the study is using of GIS technology in the rough terrain area, which strongly and effec-tively contributes to the display of spatial information and linking the study, and analysis of the information collected by using GIS programs. Subsequently, its benefits minimizing exploration costs, and selecting tar-gets with confidence and effective field work. Most of the data related to the operations of mineral exploration have a spatial nature. So, GIS has the ca-pability for storage, updating, revising, displaying, retrieving, processing, manipulating and integrating of different geo-spatial data.
By ending of this study, we will be able to save time and money by minimize exploration costs and increase profitability and efficacy select field work targets with confidence. |
