About this Research Topic
With the increasing development of mineral resources, shallow mineral resources have significantly decreased. Many mines have a serious shortage of exploitable potential, and the degree of protection for industrialization from explored petrochemical energy and mineral resources is gradually declining, becoming a bottleneck that restricts economic development. Electromagnetic exploration is an important means of deep exploration. It is of great significance in researching new theories, methods, and technologies for electromagnetic observation and information extraction to ensure the reliable and safe supply of mineral resources and energy.
To comprehensively summarize the significant role of electromagnetic methods in recent mineral resource exploration, we are organizing a special issue focused on the latest advancements in data processing techniques, new electromagnetic exploration methods, and their applications. By reviewing the achievements and shortcomings of existing research, propose more development directions of EM methods. Continue to promote technological innovation in electromagnetic exploration methods to further meet the urgent needs of deep geological exploration, urban underground space exploration, geological disaster detection and monitoring, and other aspects.
This Research Topic will focus on the latest developments in geophysical electromagnetic methods, technique and equipment, especially those involving new methods and applications on critical mineral deposits. We encourage researchers from both academia and industry to submit their work to this Research Topic to exchange ideas and develop visions. We invite the submission of both innovative research and review articles. Potential topics include but are not limited to：
• New electromagnetic exploration methods
• Data processing using traditional methods
• Data inversion using artificial intelligence machine learning and deep learning
• Applications in critical mineral deposits
• Applications in deep geological exploration
• Applications in urban underground space exploration
• Applications in geological disaster detection and monitoring
