Application of Software in 3D Geological Modeling and Resource Estimation in Metallic Ore Deposits

    Instructors: Lic. Daniel Quiroga (Minas Argentinas S.A.) This course presents a practical approach to the use of software applied to three-dimensional geological modeling and its integration into resource estimation workflows in metallic ore deposits. It is intended for geologists, advanced students, and professionals involved in the exploration, evaluation, and development of mining projects. The course… 

    Sedimentology and Ichnology in Marine Environments

      Instructors: Dr. Juan José Ponce (IIPG-CONICET), Dr. Noelia Carmona (IIPG-CONICET) Sedimentology is a branch of the Earth Sciences that studies the processes of generation, transport, and deposition of materials that accumulate as sediments in continental and marine environments, and that typically form sedimentary rocks. Since its inception, one of the main objectives of this discipline… 

      Simulating Hydrocarbon Migration Using Agent-Based Modeling (ABM)

        Instructors: Dr. Hernán Merlino (FIUBA), Dr. Silvia Barredo (FIUBA) In petroleum systems, understanding how hydrocarbons migrate through heterogeneous porous media remains one of the fundamental challenges in petroleum geology. Traditionally, these processes are modeled using differential equations that describe system behavior at a continuous scale. However, many key phenomena—such as percolation, pore connectivity, and the… 

        Introduction to R and RStudio

          Instructors: Dr. Pablo Yaciuk, Lic. Gerardo Lo Valvo, Lic. Damián Aquino This workshop is designed to introduce participants to the R programming environment and the RStudio interface, both essential tools in modern statistical analysis and data science workflows. The course emphasizes practical skills for data management, visualization, and basic statistical modeling within a reproducible research… 

          Fluvial Systems – Organization, Evolution, and Economic Significance

            Instructor: Dr. José Matildo Paredes This course provides an introduction to the theoretical foundations and methodological approaches used in the study of modern and ancient fluvial systems. It examines their internal organization, stratigraphic architecture, and evolutionary controls, with emphasis on sedimentary processes and basin-scale dynamics. Special attention is given to the implications of fluvial systems… 

            Structural Interpretation in Contractional Settings

              Instructor: Dr. Facundo Fuentes This course provides an integrated and advanced analysis of fold-and-thrust belts and thrust systems, addressing their architecture, evolution, and tectonic significance in convergent margins, collisional systems, and gravitational contexts. Based on rigorous geometric principles—fault–fold relationships, imbricate and duplex systems, triangle zones, detachment folds, and major thrust faults—it develops a comprehensive understanding… 

              Sandstone Petrology – Fundamentals and Applications

                Instructor: Dr. Oscar Limarino (IGEBA – University of Buenos Aires) This pre-conference course is designed for Earth science professionals, including geologists, geophysicists, petroleum engineers, and geotechnical engineers. It provides a comprehensive foundation in sandstone petrology, integrating fundamental concepts with applied perspectives relevant to both academic research and industry practice. The course is structured around asynchronous…
