Getech's Data Package Supports Zambia's Mining Market

12/09/2024

The Zambian Mining Licensing Committee has recently announced the cancellation of 2,605 licenses. Following a review of appeals, these cancellations are expected to take effect, making the licenses available for new applications.

Getech's comprehensive data package is designed to assess the potential of these licenses, making exploration campaigns more effective in terms of cost and risk. With integrated geological and geophysical data, the package enables innovative exploration techniques, streamlines mineral location workflows and provides a competitive edge for companies exploring mineral resources across Zambia. 

Zambia Data Package

Zambia is a prime destination for mining exploration, boasting vast reserves of copper, cobalt, gold, nickel and uranium. Getech advanced geoscience tools and extensive datasets, uniquely position us to support the next wave of exploration in Zambia.

Through high quality, harmonised and integrated geological and geophysical data, this package enables innovative exploration techniques, streamlines mineral location workflows and provides a competitive edge to companies exploring for mineral resources in Zambia.

Leveraging Getech’s geoscience and subsurface expertise, as well as best-in-class geophysical and geological data, the data package is an invaluable resource for companies aiming to capitalise on mining opportunities across Zambia.

Geophysical Data: Gravity and magnetics data, lithospheric thickness, structural interpretation, structural reconstruction models and tectonic history. Getech’s Zambian magnetic data includes reprocessed legacy surveys from the African Magnetic Mapping Project which have been IGRF-corrected, levelled, adjusted to a 1 km drape height, merged and gridded at a 1 km cell size. Getech’s Zambian gravity data includes data from over 6,000 gravity stations which have been harmonized; re-processed by Getech’s potential field experts to create bouguer anomaly, isostatic residual anomaly and several derivatives of the isostatic residual anomaly; and gridded at a 4 km cell size.

Satellite and Earth Observation Data: Decorrelation stretches; Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) images re-processed and delivered with a suite of Mineral Indices maps; Digital Elevation Models (DEMs); vegetation and land-use maps; as well as drainage and catchment area maps.

Globe Geoscience Data – Zambia Focus: Comprehensive coverage of Globe’s rich geologic knowledgebase for Zambia, including detailed data on geologic structure, crustal architecture, Depth to Basement (D2B) and paleoclimate models.

Geological Data: Mineral occurrences, lithology and geology maps and reports.

Expert Support: Getech’s team of experienced geoscientists is available to provide expert support and consultation, helping companies to maximise the value of the data and optimise their exploration strategies.
