CSA Global Training Courses

Routine collection of quality structural data is frequently overlooked or undervalued in our industry at present, the lack of which and can often lead to poor interpretations, ineffective targeting, and resulting in unnecessary costs. Many of the problems faced by exploration, mining and database geologists revolve around the daily challenges of what structural information should be collected, how much, and how to assess the quality of data collected from drill core and recognise quality control issues in oriented drill core before they appear. This one-day course will teach participants how to improve their structural data collection and assist them to gain a working knowledge of how structural data can be analysed to allow a better understanding of structural controls on mineralisation.

Who is this course for?

This course is designed for exploration, mining and database geologists seeking to improve their structural data collection and gain a working knowledge on how structural data can be analysed to allow a better understanding of structural controls on mineralisation.

This course is available onsite and as a customised training course.

Course Summary

Multi-element geochemistry is one of the most powerful tools available to an exploration geologist; it is also a tool that many skilled and seasoned practitioners struggle with day to day.

Designing effective geochemical sampling programs, managing large multi-element databases, and correctly interpreting the data are critical disciplines for an exploration geologist to master. To explore effectively, we must integrate a diverse range of data; but geochemistry is the one dataset that directly identifies (and quantifies) mineralisation. Therefore, it warrants special attention! Critical issues facing clients when managing and interpreting their geochemical data will be addressed in this course.

Who is this course for?

This one-day course is designed for moderately to highly experienced exploration geologists who wish to extend their skills in geochemistry. Knowledge of ioGAS is not required. Our facilitator will work systematically through each exercise, allowing time for note taking by participants.

This course is available onsite and as a customised training course.

Course Summary

The Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (‘the JORC Code’) is a professional code of practice that sets minimum standards for public reporting of minerals exploration results, mineral resources and ore reserves. Alongside leading experts in the mining industry, AusIMM has developed the Online Professional Certificate in JORC CODE Reporting for resources professionals to understand how to report effectively and in accordance with the JORC Code.

Who is this course for?

This course will develop an in-depth understanding of the JORC Code and its application while learning from industry experts and alongside peers in an interactive environment.

This course is available online.
