The Flin Flon mining camp in Manitoba, Canada, forms part of the largest Paleoproterozoic volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) district in the world. Seismic characterization of the camp using vsp, 2d and 3d reflection profiling has mapped various structures and aiding in tageting mineral resources.

In 1997, Noranda acquired a 7.8 km seismic line in the vicinity of the Sturgeon Lake mining camp in Norwestern Ontario. Data processing was performed at the GSC and the dynamite data displayed high signal levels with strong reflectivity observed at depth.

A total of 17 AMT stations were occupied along an southwest-northeast profile crossing known mineralized zones. The profile position was designed to image known mineralized zones along the WAS-4 seismic profile, located south of the Cluff Lake mine.

Vertical seismic profile (VSP), 2D, and 3D seismic data were acquired at the Halfmile Lake mining camp in Bathurst, NB, in order to better understand the seismic imaging of deeply buried VMS deposits.

Seismic reflection profiling has the potential to provide images of regional structures for mineral exploration in the crystalline crust and direct detection of large, massive sulfide orebodies. These methods are illustrated using an example from the Sudbury Basin, a rich mineral-producing region.
