IoGAS IMDEX Masterclass: From Excel Data to Advanced Geochemical Analysis

About Course

In the mining industry and geological exploration, geochemical data drives strategic decisions. However, knowing how to unlock its full potential remains a rare and highly sought-after skill.

This practical training guides you step-by-step through IoGAS (IMDEX), the industry-standard software for visualization, quality control, and advanced interpretation of geochemical data. You will learn how to transform raw datasets into clear decision-making models, including anomaly maps, 2D/3D displays, and multivariate analyses.

Why Take This Course?

100% Practical Approach: Hands-on experience working directly with real-world exploration datasets.
Designed by an Expert: Created by a seasoned mining professional with practical field experience.
Step-by-Step Progression: Clear, structured lessons that take you from beginner to confident user.
Lifetime Access: Study at your own pace and revisit the course material whenever needed.

Master the IoGAS Interface: Navigate the workspace efficiently and customize display settings for optimal analysis.
Data Import & Cleaning: Load, verify, correct, normalize, and transform raw geochemical and drillhole data imported from Excel.
Statistical & Geochemical Diagrams: Construct and interpret frequency histograms, scatter/correlation plots, and ternary diagrams.
Geochemical Mapping: Develop spatial distribution maps, isoconcentration (isocontour) maps, and anomaly targeting maps.
2D & 3D Drillhole Visualization: Project and display chemical grades along 2D and 3D drillhole trajectories.
Experimental & Structural Integration: Represent structural orientation data and overlay measurements on established reference diagrams.
