The electrical properties of rocks are widely used in the geophysical exploration of natural resources, such as minerals, hydrocarbons and groundwater. In mining exploration, the primary goal is to map electrically anomalous geological features associated with different mineralization styles, such as clay alteration haloes, metal oxides and sulphides, weathered crystalline rocks or fractured zones. As such, the reconciliation of geophysical data with geological information (geochemistry, mineralogy, texture and lithology) is a critical step and can be performed based on petrophysical properties collected either on core samples or as downhole measurements. Based on data from 189 diamond drill cores collected for uranium exploration in the Athabasca Basin (Saskatchewan, Canada), this paper presents a case study of reconciliation of downhole resistivity probing with core sample geochemistry and short‐wave infrared spectroscopy (350–2500 nm) through three successive steps: (i) multivariate analysis of resistivity and other petrophysical properties (porosity, density) against geochemical and infrared spectroscopy information to characterize electrical properties of rocks with respect to other physical parameters, (ii) a machine‐learning workflow integrating geochemistry and spectral signatures in order to infer synthetic resistivity logs along with uncertainties. The best model in the basin was Light Gradient‐Boosting Machine with pairwise log‐ratio, which yielded a coefficient of determination R 2 = 0.80 (root mean square error = 0.16), and in the basement, support vector regression with data fusion of infrared spectroscopy and pairwise log‐ratios on geochemistry yielded R 2 = 0.82 (root mean square error = 0.35); (iii) the best model was then fitted on an area that was excluded from the original dataset (Getty Russell property) in order to infer synthetic resistivity logs for that zone. Software code is publicly available. This workflow can be re‐used for the valorization of legacy datasets.
