Resource development, urban construction, and environmental protection are fundamental pillars of a sustainable society. To foster innovation in geophysical exploration, strengthen global collaboration, and showcase the latest advancements in resource exploration, urban geology, and environmental monitoring, this workshop will focus on cutting-edge theories, emerging technologies, and practical applications. By bringing together leading experts and researchers, we aim to develop innovative solutionsfor efficient resource utilization, sustainable urban development, and ecosystem preservation—ultimately driving progress in geophysical sciences. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and the Talent Introduction Program, we are pleased to present: "Geophysical Methods for Mineral Exploration, Urban & Underground Space Development, and Environmental Sustainability". This workshop will serve as a platform for knowledge exchange, interdisciplinary dialogue, and international cooperation in addressing key challenges for a sustainable future.
