• 3D modeling of the Pb-Zn deposit of Lontzen allowed to
• Better understand the geology and the genesis of the deposit
• Target the deposit to explore it using geophysics
• Geophysics on the field:
• Electrical survey : The best technique in our case study
• Gravity survey: mixed result
• EM survey: good results on a part of the vein
• Magnetometry: no para or ferro magnetic mineral
• …
