与20或30年前相比,建设新矿山或新矿井的费用中,住宅投资占很大比例。与多普勤x射线类似,由石油部门开发的三维地震测量可简化效益不高的勘查工作,获得较其他方法更详细的岩石构造资料。对于地质学家来说,三维地震测量可提供有关岩石构造、侵人休、断层、褶皱、矿体深度和倾角的最可靠信息. Residential investment accounts for a large proportion of the cost of building new mines or new mines compared to 20 or 30 years ago. Similar to Doppelz X-ray, 3D seismic surveys developed by the petroleum department streamline less profitable exploration efforts and obtain more detailed rock-texture information than other methods. For geologists, 3D seismic surveys provide the most reliable information on rock formations, intrusions, faults, folds, ore body depths and dip angles.
