Botswana Xplore Besshi v2IGS has recently released a series of base metal prospectivity maps for parts of Botswana produced by IGS Xplore using free geodata available on the recently launched Botswana Geoscience Portal, hosted by Geosoft.

These maps highlight favourable areas for copper, lead, and zinc mineralisation associated with different mineral deposit styles and can be used to prioritize future exploration or mapping programmes, or to help delineate mining tenement areas.

The IGS Xplore Prospectivity Maps are free to download from the Botswana Geoscience Portal. Each download includes a map in image and shapefile / layer formats and a mineral prospectivity report which provides details of the analyses and the prospectivity results. The Portal can be accessed by following this link.
