Interview with Louis Racic

What can we expect in Geosoft’s 2010 software release?
There are three key themes that have guided our software development effort. They are: ease of use, improving data accessibility and advancing 3D subsurface capabilities. All three are aimed at improving your overall experience with Geosoft software, with an emphasis on making the existing capabilities more accessible and supporting your ability to explore data more effectively within an integrated environment.

When will the 2010 Software Release be available?
Our current plan is to ship the 2010 release in the first quarter, early March.

What is Geosoft doing to improve workflows within the software?
We’ve made a number of tasks more intuitive, and easier to complete, through improvements in workflow and removal of known bottlenecks to efficiency.

As an example, we’ve made it easier to make grids of all of your geochemical assay data by adding multiple channel gridding. We’ve also improved our array handling in databases and removed the limit for the length of map group names.

Dynamic linking of data points between maps and GDBs is...

Geosoft Presents at ESRI’s GIS in Mining Seminar:
Exploration Workflows for ArcGIS Extensions
March 9th from 9:00am-12:30pm

This talk will highlight how geoscientists can use Geosoft’s exploration ArcGIS Extensions: Target for ArcGIS & Geochemistry for ArcGIS. You will learn how the built-in workflows, designed for exploration geologists, help to validate, analyze and visualize your surface or sub-surface geochemical data. You will also discover how to process and present your drillhole data in 2D and 3D quickly and easily integrate it with other exploration data within ESRI’s ArcMAP platform.

Rare Earth: Exploration techniques for rare earth
element deposits
Rare Earth Rare earth elements (REs) are beginning to generate media buzz. China provides about 90% of the world’s REs but has indicated lately that it would like to keep that supply to itself in future. So the race is on to find alternative sources that can begin producing a few years down the road, when demand is expected to exceed supply by several thousand tonnes annually.
