Geological Mapping, one of the mineral exploration activities, is associated with risks and investments and is vital to the creation of value in mining. Solutions, which guarantee the reliability of resources and reserves, are in constant development. GIS -Geographic Information Systems have proven to be one of the most decisive of the technologies involved in the process, which ensures the integration of data and information and greater objectivity in identifying value. Considering that ore bodies need to be considered in the entire three-dimensional complexity of their shapes, geovisualization would be more effective if it were conducted in three dimensions (3D) with the association of realistic images, providing a representation in virtual reality -VR. The association between GIS and VR will lead to a new benchmark in mineral exploration geological research activities, in the acquisition of field data and in the analysis, discussion and visualization of exploration results. As such, the objective of this article is to identify the parts of the process, which can be improved using a geotechnological approach, and includes a pragmatic assessment of mineral exploration, of the activities to be improved and the planning, providing an insight into the practical effects of such improvements, as the geological mapping, which could be changed from 2D to 3D the representation of the results, with implicit modeling.
