Abstract
Geophysical datasets, namely, electrical resistivity, induced polarization, magnetic susceptibility were measured and aeromagnetic interpreted on the Subika concession of Newmont Ghana Gold Limited...
Highlights
In mining, exploration has proven to be one of the stages where no returns are made on investment and considered as a high-risk stage
The mineralogical analysis provides information on the mineral composition of the host rock and the zone of mineralization. This has provided insight into the source of the geophysical signatures that are associated with the zone of gold mineralization
The magnetic susceptibility data from the 12 drilled holes reviewed, and the selected rock samples showed a negative correlation between susceptibility and gold grade
Summary
Exploration has proven to be one of the stages where no returns are made on investment and considered as a high-risk stage. This research, adopted a number of geophysical techniques and mineralogical analysis of rock sample as a means of delineating gold mineralization zones in the Subika Concession of Newmont Ghana Gold Limited. The results show the effectiveness of integrated geophysical, petrophysical as well as the mineralogical study of rock samples in revealing gold mineralization potential of the study area.
