Timmins Kidd Creek; VSP phase3; vertical seismic profile

Surface-seismic profiling is well suited for geological provinces characterized by low-to-moderate dip, but it is less effective where dips exceed 65o due to inherent limitations of the recording geometry and processing algorithms. This project evaluated the effectiveness of VSP methods for imaging massive sulphide deposits associated with folded and steeply dipping volcanic units near the Kidd Creek orebody in Ontario.
