Pendahuluan dan tantangan eksplorasi Pengenalan remote sensing Optikal remote sensing dan aplikasinya untuk eksplorasi mineral Microwave remote sensing dan aplikasinya LiDAR
“Industrial, technological, and economic developments depend on the availability of metallic raw materials” Douce, A.E.P. (2015) Metallic mineral resources in the 21st century. Natural Resources Research. Perkiraan kebutuhan sumberdaya mineral di masa depan • Proyeksi kumulatif kebutuhan metal masa depan, relatif kepada produksi total tambang tahun 1900-2012. • Pada 80-90 tahun kedepan kemungkinan kebutuhan metal mengalami peningkatan sekitar 10 kali dari total yang sudah ditambang dari tahun 1900.
Konsekuensi logis:
1. 2.
More exploration Better technology
3.
Reclassification of sub-economic resources to reserve

Perkembangan Sumber ekonomi & energi teknologi
Akses, air & lingkungan
Berdasarkan pada sifat-sifat endapan, metoda penyelidikan dan pendekatanpendekatan teknologi yang digunakan, metoda eksplorasi secara umum dapat dibedakan menjadi 2 (dua): Eksplorasi Tak Langsung Kegiatan umum
Tidak berhubungan (kontak) langsung dengan objek yang dieksplorasi
Prinsip pekerjaan
Memanfaatkan sifat-sifat fisik/kimia dari endapan
Identifikasi Metoda Tahapan eksplorasi Teknologi Biaya Waktu
Melalui anomali-anomali yang diperoleh dari hasil pengamatan/pengukuran Penginderaan jarak jauh, survei geokimia, survei geofisika Digunakan pada tahapan Reconnaissance (Eksplorasi Pendahuluan) s/d Prospeksi Membutuhkan peralatan (teknologi) relatif tinggi Biaya per satuan luas murah Relatif cepat
Eksplorasi Langsung Langsung berhubungan (kontak) dengan objek yang dieksplorasi Melakukan pengamatan/penyelidikan secara langsung terhadap terhadap endapan secara fisik Melakukan analisis megaskopis dan mikroskopis terhadap objek penyelidikan Pemetaan, uji sumur, uji parit, pemboran Digunakan pada tahapan Prospeksi Finding (Eksplorasi Detail)
Membutuhkan teknologi yang lebih sederhana s/d manual Biaya per satuan luas mahal Memerlukan waktu lebih lama
Tantangan eksplorasi endapan bahan galian Model struktur secara umum
•
Endapan mineral “permukaan” banyak yang sudah ditemukan sejak lama – Endapan mineral “bawah permukaan” masih terus di eksplorasi
•
• •
Peningkatan permintaan komoditas tambang yang tidak sebanding dengan laju penemuan baru. Dibutuhkan kebaruan teknologi Biaya eksplorasi yang sangat tinggi, khususnya aktifitas pemboran. Pemahaman sistem geologi secara komprehensif. Mineral Systems + Predictive Models + Vectors =

Sensor pasif Radar: - Memakai gelombang microwave - Menentukan jarak dan sudut suatu benda berdasarkan posisinya LiDAR: - Memakai optical laser light - Menentukan jarak suatu benda
Sensor aktif
Mengapa memilih teknologi LiDAR? • Pemetaan dengan LiDAR jauh lebih aman dan jauh lebih cepat daripada metode pemetaan konvensional. • Mendukung proses kegiatan pertambangan secara cepat • Ideal untuk analisis temporal perubahan morfologi. • Dapat diintegrasikan dengan database lain.

Keuntungan LiDAR • LiDAR manggunakan gelombang aktif sehingga akuisisi laser pun dapat dilakukan malam hari. • Kecepatan akusisi data. • Kerapatan point/titik ground yang dihasilkan per 1 meter sq minimal 1 point tapi bisa sampai 9 point tergantung permukaan dan tinggi terbang (metode akuisisi) serta FoV (Field of View/ sudut pandang sensor ke bumi). • Besaran pulse alat tidak begitu mempengaruhi, saat ini sudah ada vendor yang mampu membuat alat LiDAR dengan pulse diatas 500kHz, pulse besar ini akan maksimal jika pengambilan/akuisisi data dengan pesawat bisa “terbang tinggi”. Untuk wilayah Indonesia negera tropis dimana awan berada di ketinggian 1000 s/d 1500 meter, maka pesawat akan terbang di bawah awan. Untuk terbang dengan ketinggian dibawah 1000 meter, adalah cukup menggunakan pulse 75120 kHz dan FoV 18 s/d 25 deg. • Karena menggunakan pesawat udara, akses lebih mudah tentunya untuk mengakuisisi/mencapai ke setiap bagian site. • Hanya butuh 1 titik control tanah (BM) untuk radius terbang akuisisi 30 sd 40 km dari titik control tanah tersebut. • Biaya lebih efisien dan efektif.
Kekurangan LiDAR • Tidak bekerja maksimal di daerah yang tertutup awan/kabut • Pulse tidak dipantulkan dengan baik jika objek-objek pantul basah (berair). Karena pulse Topographic LiDAR akan diserap / hilang jika mengenai air seperti sungai atau pemukaan yang masih basah akhibat embun atau hujan. LiDAR yang digunakan untuk Hydrographic berbeda dengan Topo, untuk Hydro dikenal dengan nama SHOALS atau singkatan dari Scanning Hydrographic Operational Airborne LiDAR Survey. System ini mampu mengakuisisi permukaan air dan kedalaman air 50 s/d 60 meter dari permukaan air. • Ketidakmampuan untuk penetrasi daerah tertutup vegetatsi lebat. • Akurasi data LiDAR atau ketelitiaan yang dihasilkan LiDAR bervariatif, sangat bergantung pada kondisi permukaan. Untuk area terbuka keras ketelitan bisa mencapai dibawah 5 cm. Ketelitian Horizontal 2 kali s/d 5 kali lebih “jelek” dari dari ketelitian Vertical.
