Iron ore mineral´s evaluation, exploration and prospecton by geophysical methods

The outcomes in an iron mineral prospection and exploration, made in the municipality of Firavitoba (Boyacá-Colombia) are exposed, with the aim to define the material continuity. Three geophysical methods were selected: The Magneto-metric, the Vertical Electrical Sounding and the body loaded. Once t...

description The outcomes in an iron mineral prospection and exploration, made in the municipality of Firavitoba (Boyacá-Colombia) are exposed, with the aim to define the material continuity. Three geophysical methods were selected: The Magneto-metric, the Vertical Electrical Sounding and the body loaded. Once these studies were processed in the software SURFER & and IPI"WIN,  was obtained: The magnetic anomaly map; the area's geophysical geologic profile and an isohomas map. Their interpretation define the mineral continuity, the mineralization roof's approximate depth, and which is the most appropriate sector for exploitation with the eyessight toward a great scale mining's scale mining's beginning.

Expone  los  resultados  obtenidos  en  la  prospección  y exploración  de mineral  de  hierro  en  una  localidad  del municipio  de  Firavitoba  (Boyacá-Colombia),  con  el objeto  de  definir  la  continuidad  del  material.  Se seleccionaron  tres métodos geofísicos: Magnetometría,Sondeo Eléctrico Vertical y Cuerpo Cargado Una vez que los  datos  obtenidos  fueron  procesados  en  el  software SURFER 8 e IPI2WIN, se obtuvo el mapa de anomalía magnética,  el  perfil  geológico  geofísico  del  área  y  el mapa de isohomas, de cuya interpretación se definió la continuidad del mineral, la profundidad aproximada a la cual se encuentra el techo de mineralización y el sector más apropiado para  la explotación con miras a  iniciar una minería a gran escala.
