While a re-analysis campaign in a geochemical exploration program modernizes legacy geochemical data by providing more trustworthy and higher-dimensional geochemical data, especially where modern data is considerably different than legacy data, it is an expensive exercise. The risk associated with modernizing such legacy data lies within its uncertainty in return (e.g., the possibility of new discoveries, in primarily greenfield settings). Without any advanced knowledge of yet unanalyzed elements, the importance of re-analyses remains ambiguous. To address this uncertainty, we apply machine learning to multivariate geochemical data from different regions in Canada (i.e., the Churchill Province and the Trans-Hudson Orogen) in order to use legacy geochemical data to predict modern and higher dimensional multi-elemental concentrations ahead of planned re-analyses. Our study demonstrates that legacy and modern geochemical data can be repurposed to predict yet unanalyzed elements that will be realized from re-analyses and in a manner that significantly reduces the latency to downstream usage of modern geochemical data (e.g., prospectivity mapping). Findings from this study serve as a pillar of a framework for exploration geologists to predictively explore and prioritize potentially mineralized districts for further prospects in a timely manner before employing more invasive and expensive techniques.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"3 ","pages":"Pages 86-100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666544122000296/pdfft?md5=115f57a35bc434c4294614fe797ddff6&pid=1-s2.0-S2666544122000296-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91696855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent years have seen a decrease in the number of newly discovered mineral deposits and a rise in demand for critical raw materials, prompting exploration geologists to seek more efficient and inventive ways for processing various data types at different phases of mineral exploration. Remote sensing is one of the most sought-after tools for early-phase mineral prospecting because of its broad coverage and low cost. Remote sensing images from satellites are publicly available and can be utilised for lithological mapping and mineral exploitation. In this study, we extend an artificial intelligence-based, unsupervised anomaly detection method to identify iron deposit occurrence using Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) satellite imagery and machine learning. The novelty in our method includes: (1) knowledge-guided and unsupervised anomaly detection that does not assume any specific anomaly signatures; (2) detection of anomalies occurs only in the variable domain; and (3) a choice of a range of machine learning algorithms to balance between explain-ability and performance. Our new unsupervised method detects anomalies through three successive stages, namely (a) stage I – acquisition of satellite imagery, data processing and selection of bands, (b) stage II – predictive modelling and anomaly detection, and (c) stage III – construction of anomaly maps and analysis. In this study, the new method was tested over the Assen iron deposit in the Transvaal Supergroup (South Africa). It detected both the known areas of the Assen iron deposit and additional deposit occurrence features around the Assen iron mine that were not known. To summarise the anomalies in the area, principal component analysis was used on the reconstruction errors across all modelled bands. Our method enhanced the Assen deposit as an anomaly and attenuated the background, including anthropogenic structural anomalies, which resulted in substantially improved visual contrast and delineation of the iron deposit relative to the background. The results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed unsupervised anomaly detection method, and it could be useful for the delineation of mineral exploration targets. In particular, the method will be useful in areas where no data labels exist regarding the existence or specific spectral signatures of anomalies, such as mineral deposits under greenfield exploration.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100124,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences","volume":"3 ","pages":"Pages 71-85"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666544122000272/pdfft?md5=9ce5b9f88b3f1d81b5e69e17e51d8a1f&pid=1-s2.0-S2666544122000272-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89798656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the DTS log has limited availability mainly due to high acquisition costs. This study introduces a hybrid machine learning approach to generating synthetic DTS logs. Five wireline logs such as gamma ray (GR), density (RHOB), neutron porosity (NPHI), deep resistivity (Rt), and DTS logs are used as input data for three supervised-machine learning models including support vector machine for regression (SVR), deep neural network (DNN), and long short-term memory (LSTM). The hybrid machine learning model utilizes two additional techniques. First, as an unsupervised-learning approach, data clustering is integrated with general machine learning models for the purpose of improving model accuracy. All the machine learning models using the data-clustered approach show higher accuracies in predicting target (DTS) values, compared to non-clustered models. Second, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is combined with the models to determine optimal hyperparameters. The PSO algorithm proves time-effective, automated advantages as it gets feedback from previous computations so that is able to narrow down candidates for optimal hyperparameters. Compared to previous studies focusing on the performance comparison among machine learning algorithms, this study introduces an advanced approach to further improve the performance by integrating the unsupervised learning technique and PSO optimization with the general models.

Several ‘conventional’ filtering methods exist and recently deep learning based workflows have been proposed. A deep learning workflow can be a simple and fast alternative to existing methods. In case of supervised training of a deep neural network using training data made by physics-based modelling or actual migrations is expensive and lacks diversity in terms of noise, amplitude, frequency content and wavelet. This can result in poor generalization beyond the training data without re-training and transfer learning. In this paper we demonstrate successful applications of migration smile separation using a conventional U-net architecture. The novelty in our approach is that we do not use synthetic data created from physics-based modelling, but instead use only synthetic data build form basic geometric shapes. Our domain of application is the migrated common offset domain, or simply the stack of the pre-stack migrated data, where reflections resemble local geology and migration smiles are upward convex hyperbolic patterns. Both patterns were randomly perturbed in many ways while maintaining their intrinsic features. This approach is inspired by the common practice of data augmentation in deep learning for machine vision applications. Since many of the standard data augmentation techniques lack a geophysical motivation, we have instead perturbed our synthetic training data in ways to make more sense for a signal processing perspective or given our ‘domain knowledge’ of the problem at hand.
