Courtship area
An area of interest is an area of the earth's crust in which natural accumulations of usable mineral raw materials have been detected by indirect means, for example by linking a geological map with the results of geophysical measurements, geochemical analyzes, aerial and satellite photos, etc. There are none yet concrete estimates of the raw material quantities available are possible, but further investigations appear justified.
The term höffig , which comes from the miner's language , generally means promising a rich occurrence, e.g. B. crude oil . The term has meanwhile also been transferred to the earnings potential of other resources, e.g. In connection with the suitability of locations for wind turbines, for example, one speaks of the wind prospect of an area, in archeology the find prospect describes the probability of making a soil find in a described area.
