| الوصف: | With the decrease in shallow mineral reserves, deep mineral resources have become the focus of exploration. Seismic exploration, renowned for its deep penetration and high spatial resolution and precision, stands as a primary technique in geophysical exploration. In comparison to traditional P-wave seismic exploration, multi-component seismic techniques offer the advantage of simultaneously acquiring P-wave and S-wave data, overcoming the limitations of single P-wave impedance in predicting lithology and enabling high-precision imaging of subsurface structures. Constrained by field survey costs, the reflection seismic illumination is lower and results in a poor signal-to-noise ratio of multi-component seismic data in metallic ore exploration, which poses great challenges in imaging converted S-waves. Based on the seismic and geological characteristics of metallic ores, this study conducts imaging research on metallic ore models through synthetic data and field multi-component seismic data from a copper–molybdenum mine in Inner Mongolia, China. The emphasis is given to PS-wave pre-stack time migration based on precisely sorting the commonly converted point so as to explore the feasibility and technical advantages of multi-component seismic exploration in metal mines. Synthetic data and field data testing demonstrate that PS-wave imaging contains more abundant structural and lithological information compared to PP-waves, indicating promising prospects for the application of multi-component seismic data in metallic ore exploration. |
