مستخلص: A fractal is a collection of geometric patterns found both in nature and in the form of visualizations in mathematical models, where the pattern is repeated on a smaller scale. Fractal geometry not only characterizes geometric images, but also reflects the processes of formation and evolution. In simple terms, fractal geometry is an irregular geometric shape that has the property of self-similarity at different scales. Fractals can be built using one of the techniques, namely the iteration technique. One of the fundamental requirements for successful exploration and evaluation of mineral deposits is the preparation of a description of the spatial distribution of mineral deposits. The geological processes in the formation of ore deposits can be determined by combining information about the distribution of ore deposits with geological data. The purpose of writing this article is to find out the application of fractals by showing the theorem of fractal geometry proved to be a useful concept for solving problems in geology and the mining industry. The results show that the concept of fractals has proven to be a very useful way of describing naturally occurring dimensional statistics. The spatial distribution of mineral deposits from fractal dimension calculations provides fundamental implications for exploration. The degree of exploration of an area can be assessed by comparing the observed fractal dimensions with known values. The importance of the application of fractal analysis in geology, useful in the geometric determination of mineral deposits, particularly in the study of fracture parameters, and especially in dealing with the assessment of the variability of geotechnical parameters for the purpose of further planning the direction of mining operations.
