SPECTRAL CASE STUDIES

Numerous Case Studies based on PIMA™ ground data will be available in CD Rom format. Generally they contain PIMA™ data, sample location maps and descriptive text with references on the location. When available, digital pictures of the site are included as are hyperspectral and/or Landsat images. Some of the examples also have drill core or RC chip PIMA™ logs.

New studies are added as completed. Selected pieces of the data are available without charge when they have been acquired through the generosity of mining companies on public field trips such as SEG excursions. Please inquire which data sets are covered by this proviso.

Please inquire as to pricing ecp@rmi.net . The case studies can be purchased singularly or in packages, which are discounted.
