Applied Geochemistry: Advances in Mineral Exploration Techniques is a book targeting all levels of exploration geologists, geology students and geoscientists working in the mining industry. This reference book covers mineral exploration techniques from multiple dimensions, including the application of statistics - both principal component analysis and factor analysis - to multifractal modeling. The book explains these approaches step-by-step and gives their limitations. In addition to techniques and applications in mineral exploration, Applied Geochemistry describes mineral deposits and the theories underpinning their formation through worldwide case studies.

Includes both conventional and nonconventional techniques for mineral exploration, including lithogeochemical methods
Highlights the importance and applications of multifractal models, 3D - mineral prospectivity modeling
Features case studies from mines and mineral exploration ventures around the world
