“Especially AI has assisted the users for generation of 4D modelling by adding time component which allows reproducing the dynamic evolution of geological structures and reconstructing the past deformation history of geological formations,” he said, while addressing a workshop hosted by GSI.
Mines secretary V L Kantha Rao made a plea to all notified exploration agencies and startups working in the field of exploration to put special focus on critical minerals, potash and concealed deposits.
He stressed upon the need for the use of new age technology, especially AI and ML in expediting mineral exploration activities in our country.
