Finland

Kenex has recently become involved in mineral exploration in Finland.  This is largely due to a trip to an international Spatial Data Modelling seminar in Rovaniemi, Finland where Greg presented several talks on the applications of modelling in the mineral exploration and environmental fields (http://projects.gtk.fi/SDM/index.html).  Subsequent discussions with staff from the Finnish Geological Survey indicated Finland had significant potential for new discoveries, as many commodities remain highly unexplored.  Additionally, Finland has excellent geological databases, good infrastructure and readily available exploration services.

Kenex has begun collection and compilation of all available cadastral, topographical, geological and geophysical data from Finland.  Once complete, this data will be integrated using Spatial Data Modelling techniques, allowing identification of the most prospective ground in Finland for tenement application. This data will also be used to assess any mineral exploration tenders provided by the Finnish Ministry of Trade and Industry.
