About this position

Develop and test new methods for deep exploration of sediment-hosted copper systems by integrating legacy seismic and well-log data with basin modelling, geochemistry and machine learning. Job description We are looking for a PhD candidate who is keen to explore how legacy seismic and well-log data acquired for petroleum exploration can be transformed into a new resource for deep mineral exploration. The candidate will combine quantitative geophysical interpretation, basin modelling and machine learning to investigate a challenging target: the thin Kupferschiefer horizon buried beneath the Net
