Did you know that in addition to being one of our industry’s geochemical powerhouses, JC is also an artist? But also as we continue along in the episode we’ll see that he’s perhaps a staunch businessman. The course spans fundamentals (including QA/QC), a review of methodologies, interpretation of 4 acid ICP data, geometallurgy, ore body
Do you want to integrate machine learning into your exploration workflow, but feel precluded from doing so because of complicated terminology in the majority of the literature? Have a crack at Mac’s first paper and then join us for this discussion on how he implemented a relatively simple, but well-constrained, study to provide explorationists with
Have you perused a geochemistry lab schedule and not known where to start? Don’t worry – the answers are not obvious and GeocHemiSTea is here to help! We have broken this episode into six sections to get to your answers quicker, but considering the complexity of the topic and the importance of having the best
There’s a role for classical geochemistry (bivariate plots, probability plots, etc.) to play, but the future is moving towards a data science approach to geochemical data. Come listen to Mike’s take on where geochemistry in industry is heading and where it still needs to shift. For this episode we read: Mineral Geochemistry Vectoring: Uncovering Northwest
Excited for Mike’s upcoming episode on bridging the gap between classical geochemistry and geochemistry in data science? Enjoy a teaser on how our email chain evolved during the development of this episode!
Surely you have seen a geochemical diagram before… Winchester and Floyd (1977) for the classification of volcanic rocks or even Pearce’s 1996 diagram to classify basalts. Have you combed the literature to find the most fit-for-purpose diagram for your own rock samples? Look no further! In this discussion with Pim van Geffen we talk about
Getting excited for Pim’s upcoming episode on building your own geochemistry classification diagram? Here’s a short episode that delves into the world of analytical digests and scratches the surface of analytical finishes.
These questions were meant to be a summary at the end of Episode 5 to tie everything together, instead there is so much great information that we decided to give this bonus content to you as a preview of what is to come in Thursday’s episode!
What does a computational geochemist and igneous petrologist do? Apparently, they think a lot on crystal mushes and bifurcation. Seeing mafic magmatic PGE and Cr systems from an igneous petrology perspective has its benefits and there’s something in this episode for everyone interested in these systems. Separately, we also asked about his views on predatory
…and the moment you run into this will tell you a lot about how you feel as a person, to learn something you might have been wrong about.” -Tom Carmichae Tom is the Chief Data Scientist at Datarock and we spent a long time at the beginning of this episode talking about the fields of
