Abstract:It is difficult to carry out the conventional geological prospecting in the shallow sea covered area. The lack of effective technical methods restricts the prospecting and exploration. Taking the prospecting and exploration in the northeastern shallow sea area of Sanshandao as an example, by using the combination of exploration technologies and methods, such as gravity measurement, high precision magnetic profile measurement, seismic profile measurement, shallow drilling sampling geochemical profile measurement and drilling, the orecontrolling structures in the shallow sea covered area has been interpreted and controlled, and gold ore bodies have been discovered. As showed by the results, the combination of methods is effective in prospecting in shallow sea covered area. It can provide some references for prospecting and exploration in shallow sea covered area.
