Who We Are
Minerals Spectrum Survey offers a method based on a combination of remote
method of deep sensing of the Earth using radiation of different characteristics
and radiation-chemical processing of space images to visualize the boundaries
of the contours of anomaly sites.
Our Mission
We offer a high-tech solution for the search of all types of minerals for companies interested in innovative and effective technologies, valuing efficiency, reliability and focused on reducing the cost of mineral resources production.

Industry Problems
“Minerals are essential components in many of today’s rapidly growing clean
energy technologies. Demand for these minerals will grow quickly as clean
energy transitions gather pace.”

“There are three primary challenges facing the oil and gas industry today. The first is to produce more energy at lower cost with less emissions… The second challenge is for the oil and gas industry to collectively invest approximately $500 billion each year just to keep up with demand… The third challenge is for oil and gas companies todemonstrate differential and durable cash flows.“

“Frontier acreage and access to reserves – Frontier acreage challenge
represents exploration and development of new fields that previously regarded as too difficult, too expensive or too politically unstable to justify operations.”

Top 10 Challenges in Oil and Gas Industry
“Unpredictable Prices of Mined Goods in Australia” – Volatile commodity prices make it extremely difficult for companies to plan income and therefore expenditure. Recent disruption in commodity prices has led to many companies having to close down operations or make serious cuts in the size of their workforce. As a result, mining companies are focussed on improving efficiency and reducing cost more than ever.

Five common challenges facing the mining industry
“Exploring the innovation imperative” – Commodities may be broadly moving back into global market balance and even surplus, but the mining sector’s challenges are far from over. In a world of deeper mines, more complex ore bodies, rising energy costs, social and geopolitical risks, infrastructure shortages and resource nationalism, mining companies remain under exceptional pressure to control costs, heighten efficiency and improve safety performance.”

The Facts “2.1 billion people globally do not have access to clean, safe drinking water. 3.4 million people die each year from scarce and contaminated water sources. Millions of women and children spend 3-6 hours each day collecting water from distant and polluted source.”

“Water, essential for life. The worldwide degradation of natural resources is one on the major societal challenges. Water is one of the most important resources for humankind. It is a prerequisite for life on our planet and cuts across many social, economic and environmental activities.”

With the help of the equipment of the remote geogolographic complex, aqueous horizon at depths of 270-315 m, the width of the accumualation of 4-5 km were identified and recommended for commercial usage. Drilled two exploratory wells confirmed the presence of aqueous horizon with the specified characteristics.
2009, USA, Utah, Oil, 160km2
The data obtained by the remote sensing equipment was used to revise the drilling locations of 2 wells with low porosity of reservoir rocks. The wells locations were proved by seismic lines.
2010, USA, Texas, Shale gas, 120km2
The study showed that the accumulation of shale gas occurs only in porous (fault) zones and has a migration of gas to shale horizons from large gas fields with high gas pressure. The results of the work were confirmed by drilling a well in the identified anomaly, which penetrated gas accumulation at depth of 3.5 km with gas pressure of ~65 MPa
2011, Mongolia, Shand, Copper-molybdenum ores
Two anomalies associated with copper ore mineralization have been outlined. The conducted selective measurements of the depths of the mineral occuerence and the assessment of forecast resources for the most part were proved by drilling exploratory wells.
2013 Indonesia, Block Brantas, Oil & Gas
Surveys of 5 sites of the Brantas block (Indonesia) confirmed that hydrocarbon anomalies may not occupy the entire area of the promising geological structure (which was identified by seismic survey), but only that part of it where reservoir rocks have porosity of >10-12%.
This was confirmed by 16 unsuccessful wells (dry holes) drilled earlier by the Customer in hydrocarbon traps (according to seismic data) and 3 successful wells (2 oil and 1 gas) drilled in anomalies where reservoir rocks had porosity of 15-25%.
2013, Australia, Queensland, Cooper PEL-105
The study of oil and gas trap, previously identified by the results of seismic, was carried out using remote equipment and made it possible not to recommend it for further commercial development as unpromising, since the reservoir rocks in 3 horizons had a low porosity (5-7%).
It was proposed to the Customer to abandon the planned drilling of the Piri-1 well. But the Customer ignored the recommendation and drill the Piri-1 well where seismic results suggested. The results of drilling confirmed the low porosity of reservoir rocks (~7%), and the well failed to produce at commercial rates. The well was abandoned as unsuccessful.

The accuracy of the identified hydrocarbon accumulations is confirmed by the results of the exploratory wells testing. The accuracy (COS) is 90%. Specialists and experts of the company believe that the proposed method is of great practical value, especially in poorly studied areas (frontier zones).
2019, Nigeria, oil/gas, 1167km2
Analysis of the presented results showed a high degree of reliability of the obtained information. The work was performed as “blind study” without providing the available information on the object.
The presented method and the equipment can be successfully used to quickly obtain the preliminary data on the presence of HC anomalies.
2019, Russia, Irkutsk, Oil
The efficiency of the method is confirmed by commercial flow rates in the wells within the zones of hydrocarbon anomalies.
