A statistical analysis of the documents reveals the main players, technology trends, and collaboration patterns via bibliometric techniques. The article aims to analyse the gap between the model of sustainable less invasive innovations and the concrete implementation of the technology pull. Special attention is paid to the enablers of sustainable development and their presence in the technology landscape for less invasive exploration technologies.}, organization = {European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme 776487}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Science Innovation and Universities RTI2018-098966-B-I00}, publisher = {Mdpi}, keywords = {Airborne electromagnetic}, keywords = {Less invasive technologies}, keywords = {Technology watch}, keywords = {Patent analysis}, keywords = {Patent landscaping}, title = {Sustainability in Mineral Exploration—Exploring Less Invasive Technologies via Patent Analysis}, doi = {10.3390/su12229761}, author = {Ruiz Coupeau, Stephane and Jürgens, Björn and Keßelring, Michaela and Herrero Solana, Víctor}, }
