Methods We Use
We use a range of geophysical methods depending on the task, the depth, and the geology. Here is how each one works and when to apply it.
Magnetotellurics / MT
Deep structural mapping using natural electromagnetic fields. Works from hundreds of meters to tens of kilometers.
Transient Electromagnetics / TEM
Pulsed method for near-surface and mid-depth studies. Effective for ore zones and aquifer mapping.
Vertical Electrical Sounding / VES
Electrical sounding for layered geology and groundwater exploration. Depth up to 200–300 meters.
Induced Polarization / IP
Detection of disseminated sulfides and other polarizable targets. Often used together with resistivity surveys.
Frequency Sounding / CSAMT
Frequency-domain sounding for mid-depth structural studies. An alternative to VES and a complement to MT.
Tomography
High-resolution cross-sections and 3D models. Used to refine complex geological structures.
Gravity & Magnetics
Methods for studying density and magnetic properties. Help map large geological structures and ore bodies.
Petrophysics
Laboratory and borehole studies connecting geophysical data with actual rock properties.
