Constraint-Based Opportunity Assessment Framework

Paper 320 of 383
Published June 1, 2026

Opportunity assessment is fundamentally a decision problem.

Resources are finite.

Time is finite.

Attention is finite.

This paper evaluates opportunity assessment through measurable geological constraints rather than isolated indicators.

The objective is to prioritize opportunities supported by multiple independent lines of evidence.

Assessment Principle

Opportunity increases when independent evidence converges.

The strongest opportunities are frequently supported by multiple constraint systems simultaneously.
