The deposit is situated in southeastern New South Wales at Lat.35°04*S, Long.1A9°34*E. (Fig.l) The first phase of testing proved up a body of poljmietallic massive sulphides and an adjacent zone of dominantly copper ore. The massive sulphides body consisted of about 6.3 million tonnes of copper, lead and zinc ore (1.7% Cu: 5.5% Pb; 14.4% Zn) and was the main target for geophysical investigation. The copper ore zone contains about 3.7 million tonnes averaging about 1.9% Cu, 0.1%Pb, 0.5% Zn in a number of ore shoots both along strike from and below the massive sulphides. Subsequent drilling indicated several concealed bodies of massive sulphides, separate from the first discovered body but these are at depths of more than 200m and hence too deep to have influenced the geophysical investigations.  <...>

Often times a student is introduced to geophysics as a rather specialized branch of geology, employed only for prospecting or in graduate research. Geophysics courses are usually taken later in a college schedule after adequate preparation in physics and mathematics. Because it is a broad, interdisciplinary area of physical science, one can obtain a background in geophysics by taking selected studies in several different but related fields.

Even though our limited perceptions provide us with only a brief glimpse of the Universe, the main lesson that we learn from our observation is that the world is complicated. Very complicated. Every part of the universe interacts with the other parts; the responses of each component are never proportional to the applied forces, and the feedbacks of one subsystem on another cannot be discarded. As a result, processes are unpredictable, and chaotic behavior is a common occurrence. Disorder and turbulence become rife. Yet from the chaotic background, coherent structures sometimes emerge, patterns form, and local order is generated.

After every major earthquake, the Earth rings like a large bell for several days. These free oscillations of the Earth are routinely detected at modern broad-band seismographic stations, which are now distributed globally. The eigenfrequencies and decay rates of the vibrations can be measured and used to constrain the radial and lateral distribution of density, seismic wave speed and anelastic attenuation within the interior.

Within the esteemed halls of the University of Oklahoma, our journey into the depths of seismic interpretation began an endeavor that has since blossomed into a comprehensive exploration of fault damage zones through the lens of seismic attributes. Under the guidance of Prof. Kurt J. Marfurt and with the invaluable insights of Prof. Ze’ev Reches, we embarked on a project that not only sought to characterize the strike-slip fault in the Anadarko Basin but also to lay the groundwork for a methodical, quantitative analysis of subsurface structures—a task that was both ambitious and pioneering in 2010. 

The percentage composition of the subject matter of this revised edition is approximately the same as that for the first, but the number of chapters has increased significantly. This necessitated the publication of a companion volume. In addition to dealing with various geophysical exploration methods, it adds and emphasizes the use of radiometric methods to explore for hard minerals found in sediments on and beneath the ocean floor.
