HyLogging is a tool to rapidly and consistently log the mineralogy in drill core using infrared spectroscopy. This one-day, hands-on course will describe the concepts and skills of traditional industry core logging and demonstrate the benefit of using HyLogger data to empower geologists and improve core logging. The aim is to compare and contrast what the eye observes and what the HyLogger ‘sees’, to arrive at a more objective and standardised interpretation. TSG software will be used for the data analysis and licences will be provided for the day.

Melissa Quigley and Jon Huntington, together with staff from the GSNSW, will direct this training course towards postgraduate students, early career geoscientists and industry professionals. It will cover the application and interpretation of HyLogging data acquired from a selection of NSW mineral deposits housed in the GSNSW National Virtual Core Library facilities. The course will include:
Transforming infrared spectra into mineralogical results and geological knowledge.
14 hours of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) are credited for attending this workshop.
Participants must bring their own Windows-based laptop computer. Directions to download and install The Spectral Geologist (TSG) software will be emailed to registered participants before the workshop. Bring a hand lens and magnetic scribe if possible. Wear enclosed shoes for the core layout area.
Melissa Quigley is a Spectral Geologist who provides consulting and onsite mineral spectroscopy training services to the global exploration and mining industry. Melissa has extensive industry expertise in the application of hyperspectral infrared mineral spectroscopy across a range of ore deposit types developed during her 15 years at CSIRO Mineral Resources and 5 years as a consultant for Spectral Geoscience Pty Ltd. Melissa was an integral member of the CSIRO team that developed the HyLogging Systems and supporting geological case studies for industry and has contributed to the development of The Spectral Geologist (TSG) software.
Dr Jon Huntington is an internationally recognised specialist in hyperspectral applications for the Geosciences, co-developer of the HyLogging Systems and TSG software and past Director of the AuScope National Virtual Core Library (NVCL) infrastructure. He is currently a CSIRO Fellow and HyLogging interpretation and training consultant to industry and the Geological Surveys.
