non-invasive geophysical methods and their applications in gemstone exploration

This article explores non-invasive geophysical methods and their applications in gemstone exploration. The use of geophysical methods in mineral exploration, particularly for gemstones, is an innovative and significant approach that allows for the acquisition of precise subsurface information without causing environmental damage. Methods such as Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), electrical resistivity techniques, magnetometry, and electromagnetic methods are widely applied in gemstone exploration, especially in regions with complex conditions such as forests, mountainous areas, and hard soils. The article also addresses the challenges associated with implementing these methods in gemstone exploration and proposes solutions to enhance their accuracy and efficiency. Successful applications of these methods in various regions worldwide, including Congo and Brazil, are highlighted as practical examples. The article emphasizes that the use of these non-invasive techniques, particularly in the jewelry industry, can serve as an effective tool for reducing costs, improving accuracy, and minimizing environmental risks in mineral exploration.
