The presented seismic exploration experiment exhibits the potential of using a low-cost survey design for 3-D imaging of the subsurface. In this case study, a deep layered intrusion and its feeder system are investigated. The new insights into the tectonic evolution and mineralization potential of the studied region in Finland evidences a complex, layered system rather than a simple magma channel. Furthermore, a major fault is identified that may influence how the development of mineral deposits in the area are interpreted. In summary, this work offers new tools and insights for exploring valuable underground resources in hard rock environments. This is a timely scientific result not only for Europe but has influence on people's sustainable living worldwide.

We acquired and processed novel 3D seismic data to reveal the hidden structure of a deep rock formation in northeastern Finland. This study uncovered a complex, layered system rather than a simple magma channel, and identified a major fault that may influence mineral deposits. Our findings offer new tools and insights for exploring valuable underground resources in hard rock environments.
