Myanmar known until recently as Burma, is slowly but steadily starting to attract foreign investment, driven mainly by international resource firms eager to tap into the mineral-rich South East Asia's country. After more than half a century of military ruling, Burma has started benefitting from the recent suspension of sanctions by Canada, the United States and the European Union. Myanmar's gold production is increasing and could prove a key factor for the country's economic growth, but many gold miners are suffering from lung diseases due to inadequate equipment and antiquated practices. In mineral-rich areas of Kachin State, taxes from Burmese and Chinese gold mining provides an important income stream to the Kachin Independence Organization. However, these mining companies use mercury in an environmentally hazardous extraction process, which can lead to long-lasting damage for the area's forests and river ways.

Tectonic Processes and Metallogeny along the Tethyan Mountain Ranges of the M...MYO AUNG Myanmar
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/309130798_Tectonic_Processes_and_Metallogeny_along_the_Tethyan_Mountain_Ranges_of_the_Middle_East_and_South_Asia_Oman_Himalaya_Karakoram_Tibet_Myanmar_Thailand_Malaysia
The genesis of mineral deposits has been widely linked to speci c tectonic settings, but has less frequently been linked to tectonic processes. Understanding processes of oceanic and continental collision tectonics is crucial to understanding key factors leading to the genesis of magmatic-, metamorphic-, hydrothermal-, and sedimentary-related mineral deposits. Geologic studies of most ore deposits typically focus on the nal stages of concentration and emplacement. The ultimate source (mantle, lower crust, upper crust) of mineral deposits in many cases remains more cryptic. Uniquely, along the Tethyan collision zones of Asia, every stage of the conver- gence process can be studied from the initial oceanic settings where ophiolite complexes were formed, through subduction zone and island-arc settings with ultrahigh- to high-pressure metamorphism, to the continental col- lision settings of the Himalaya, and advanced, long-lived collisional settings such as Afghanistan, the Karakoram Ranges, and the Tibetan plateau. The India-Asia collision closed the intervening Neotethys ocean at ~50 Ma and resulted in the formation of the Himalayan mountain ranges, and increased crustal thickening, metamor- phism, deformation, and uplift of the Karakoram-Hindu Kush ranges, Tibetan plateau, and older collision zones across central Asia. Metallogenesis in oceanic crust (hydrothermal Cu-Au; Fe, Mn nodules) and mantle (Cr, Ni, Pt) can be deduced from ophiolite complexes preserved around the Arabia/India-Asia collision (Oman, Ladakh, South Tibet, Myanmar, Andaman Islands). Tectonic-metallogenic processes in island arcs and ancient subduc- tion complexes (VMS Cu-Zn-Pb) can be deduced from studies in the Dras-Kohistan arc (Pakistan) and the various arc complexes along the Myanmar-Andaman segment of the collision zone. Metallogenesis of Andean- type margins (Cu-Au-Mo porphyry; epithermal Au-Ag) can be seen along the Jurassic-Eocene Transhimalayan ranges of Pakistan, Ladakh, South Tibet, and Myanmar. Large porphyry Cu deposits in Tibet are related to both precollisional calc-alkaline granites and postcollisional alkaline adakite-like intrusions. Metallogenesis of continent-continent collision zones is prominent along the Myanmar-Thailand-Malaysia Sn-W granite belts, but less common along the Himalaya. The Mogok metamorphic belt of Myanmar is known for its gemstones associated with regional high-temperature metamorphism (ruby, spinel, sapphire, etc). In Myanmar it is likely that extensive alkaline magmatism has contributed extra heat during the formation of high-temperature meta- morphism. This paper attempts to link metallogeny of the Himalaya-Karakoram-Tibet and Myanmar collision zone to tectonic processes derived from multidisciplinary geologic studies.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Metrology surveys – we need to be:
Very efficient
While delivering the required accuracy
With known quality.
Topics today:
Dimensional Control and offsets
Mechanical interfaces between instruments and structures
ROV operational issues
Bathymetry surveys
Quality control displays while collecting data
Offshore deliverables
3. Proven technology
Zupt has been in business since 2005, operating offshore since 2007 – first
commercial client for metrology early 2008. To date we have commercially
delivered >80 inertial metrologies in:
Regions:
West Africa rigs and survey vessels
U.S. Gulf of Mexico rigs and survey vessels
North Sea from rig
Bahamas (42” dia. spool) shallow water barge with divers
Fields worked:
Angola: Shenzi, Pazflor, Girassol, CLOV, Dahlia, Girri
Congo: Moho Bilondo
GoM: Mississippi Canyon, Green Canyon
North Sea: Pelican
Clients:
Total, BHP Billiton, Shell, LLOG, C&C Technologies, TAQA, Acergy,
Statoil, Jan de Nul. Near term future work in Malaysia & Russia?
4. Inertial Metrology
Mature and fully proven – if you have a place to stab inertial will work
Accurate: +/- 25mm to 20m jumper/spool length
+/- 50mm to 50m jumper/spool length
+/- 75mm to 90m
+/- 100mm for longer lengths <150m
Practical – clients can QC our data within hours of first exposure
Very efficient (much less boat/rig time needed) ~ 6 hours for full metrology including
route survey
Works in the presence of drilling noise and vibration
No “line of sight needed”
Smaller footprint - less people on board (POB) – less bunk space needed
Vessel independent – MSV, divers or a rig – no need for USBL
Connector independent – Horizontal, Vertical, SHO, PLET, FLET etc.
One channel needed from ROV – hence very fast ROV mob time
Inertial needs no vessel time to deploy array frames or complex subsea stands
5. One more time - what is needed?
Deliverables from a metrology:
When we look at accuracy, efficiency and quality we have to
understand the subtle issues associated with all of the deliverable
components required of a metrology survey:
Hub to Hub Horizontal Range
Hub Attitude (Heading, Pitch, Roll)
Alpha / Beta Angles between Hubs (for horizontal connectors)
Hub Step Heights
Depth Difference between Hubs
Bathymetric Profile of Jumper Route
We spend more time acquiring the bathy than we do the distance or
attitude data. We spend more time processing the bathy as well.
6. DC - Offsets and accuracy
Sounds obvious – BUT!
Install receptacles or survey points close to hub
Make sure it is accessible
Make sure both linear and angular lever arms are
measured.
Is it better to have a fixed receptacle further away, or tooling
that is installed onto the hub face? Both!
7. Tooling
We believe that the mechanical interface to the structure is one of the
most critical issues that impacts the accuracy, efficiency and
quality of metrology surveys.
OR
8. Tooling
Does it matter that the stab has an interference fit with the
receptacle – or if we can stab the tool in faster.
Slightly longer stabs make up easier
Protect the nose of the stab and it will always fit
OR OR
14. ROV operational issues
Power: 24V dc, 75W (battery back up internal to our tool)
Communications: A single RS232 115,200 (can live with 38,400)
baud rate com port.
We supply a serial mux [MicroTTU] into C-PINS for all external
sensors. ROV’s rarely have the channels available that were available
when talking about the job on the beach.
17. Bathy Survey - step or fly?
Step Bathymetric Survey (Digiquartz)
Log position every 2 m along jumper
route with Digiquartz.
Fly
Using mini SVS and an Altimeter in
addition to the Digiquartz we fly the route
18. Fly the route or Step the route?
Why don’t we always fly the route survey?
19. Step Height Survey
Step Height Survey
Top of hub to plant North mudline depth measurements
Step Height Survey provides hub heights and mudline data.
20. Step height measurements
Step heights at manifolds are
easy.
At the well – a whole other
story. Frame grabs should be
included in reports to explain
why.
21. Zupt uses our proprietary software for data acquisition and on-line QC -
SSTT (Sub Sea Time Tag)
Our real time QC lets us know when we have a valid data set with the
quality specified as we are working.
Accuracies we have within current contracts:
Hub to Hub Horizontal Range +/- 50mm-+/- 75mm
Hub Attitude (Heading, Pitch, Roll) +/- °0.5
Alpha / Beta Angles between Hubs +/- °0.5
Hub Step Heights +/- 75mm
Depth Difference between Hubs +/- 50mm
Bathymetric Profile of Jumper Route Not specified
Quality required
22. Real-time quality control
It is critical that we see real
time quality data as we are
working.
Position loop selection on
the left.
Individual data sets and their
impact on the final solution
are on the screen in front of us
– as we collect the data.
We know when we are done!
SD at ~65% of client spec.
24. Deliverables
ODEL (Offshore Deliverable)
Prior to departure from the survey platform (vessel or rig) the metrology
results are delivered to the client in the form of an offshore deliverable.
ODEL contains all metrology data required for jumper fabrication.
All of our data is sent emailed to Houston for QC during and immediately
upon completion of survey(24/7/365). Client is issued raw data within an
hour of survey completion.
Results delivered within min 12 hours, max 24 hours of data acquisition.
31. Metrology from imaging?
The next generation – “Fly by metrology”
Precise measurements made within photogrammetry like data
collected by frame grabbing video imagery – fly the route a few
times – process solution.
