Bio : James Cormier-Chisholm is a Nova Scotia geologist who owns Eureka Maps Inc., a geological data mining company.   He became interested in data mining after working on the Voisey’s Bay Nickel Project as a consultant reviewing the mine and refinery complex for the Canadian Federal government in 1998 to 2000. He worked as a financial writer data mining markets for Futures Magazine, a US based trade magazine, defined the Exxon Mobil heavy oil mine resource using data mining techniques, and worked in the environmental field on megaprojects, including as a fund knowledge worker reviewing financial and environmental considerations for megaproject funding, underneath Dematteo Monness. He has actively worked on projects as an environmental manager on infrastructure megaprojects, and as an environmental EIA reviewe...

  Gravity of the Situation: Gravity Surveys and Geological Data Mining James Cormier-Chisholm, B.Sc. Geology, Env. Tech., MBA, Eureka Maps Inc. , Geological Data Miner It is one of the considerations of geological data mining, that one of the geophysical inputs often needed is gravity data. These surveys are often ground gravity surveys. It is on the geological data miner's wish list to have gravity surveys as one of the inputs into the data mining process to find minerals. Not all countries have this gravity data, not all countries release this data to the public. For planetary scale geological data mining for mineral resource, it would be a definite wish list item that Elon Musk, or NASA, or another bright aerospace company, would solve the issue of reducing noise in gravity mapping with respect to satellite based systems. Such satellite-based gravity surveys, would produce planet wide surveys useful for mineral exploration. The challenge of measuring gravity from space for miner...
