Aurora Geophysics Ltd Limited is a Kazakhstani geophysical company, a part of Aurora Minerals Group, and provides a wide range of geophysical services, including ground and airborne geophysical surveys, well logging, processing and interpretation of geophysical data, and also specializes on advanced technology transfer. Our company focuses on efficiency, quality and cost-effectiveness of provided services, which in turn will lead to optimization of the entire mineral exploration process.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd provides a full range of airborne geophysical services:
- Airborne magnetic survey
- Airborne gravimetric survey
- Airborne gamma-ray spectrometry survey
- Airborne EM survey
The advantages of airborne geophysics are high speed and perfomance, as well as cost-effectiveness while surveying large areas.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd has successfully completed more than 60 000 line kilometers of airborne geophysical surveys for various clients, including Rio Tinto, Fortescue Metals Group and Kazzinc (Glencore).
Aurora Geophysics Ltd is an exclusive partner of Xcalibur Multiphysics in Kazakhstan.
Xcalibur Multiphysics is the world leader in airborne geophysical solutions. Xcalibur Multiphysics has established more than 50 million linear kilometers of collected data, with more than 1000 projects executed in 5 continents.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd offers airborne gravity surveying using the unique Falcon® Airborne Gravity Gradiometry technology. The Falcon® family of technologies has been jointly developed by Xcalibur Multiphysics, BHP and Lockheed Martin over the last 20 years.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd offers three options of Falcon® gravity:
- Falcon ® AGG – collected over 3 million line kilometers of highest quality data.
- Falcon ® PLUS – multiple improvements enable to double the signal-to-noise ratio, 30 times better spatial resolution than conventional airborne gravity.
- HeliFalcon® - the only airborne gravity gradiometry (AGG) system deployable in a helicopter.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd is a leader in airborne magnetic and gamma-spectrometry surveying.
XMAG™ is a fixed-wing aircraft system that uses gradiometers and radiometric crystal packs, and provides the maximum efficiency in acquiring top-of-the range high-resolution geophysical data at low altitudes.
MIDAS® is a state-of-the-art magnetic and gamma-spectrometry system, developed specifically to fly even lower altitudes than conventional helicopter- based geophysical systems, providing high resolution and precise data.
Aurora Geophysics Ltd jointly with Xcalibur Multiphysics is proud to offer a full site of industry leading airborne electromagnetic technologies, each one best in their class:
- TEMPEST ® is the leading fixed-wing airborne electromagnetic system./li>
- HELITEM ® is the leading helicopter airborne electromagnetic system. Optimized for imaging the maximum exploration depth and enhanced sensitivity to conductive targets.
Exceptional prospecting search efficiency and reliability of these technologies is achieved due to the combination of airborne electrical and magnetic survey methods, mobility and survey speed, as well as zero environmental impact.
All this makes airborne electromagnetic survey the most cost-effective method for exploration of greenfield territories.
