GEOPHYSICAL PROSPECTING FOR BARITE *

Geophysical Prospecting, 1974
AbstractA case history is presented for the exploration of barite with the electrical resistivity method. Altogether eight locations were recommended out of which six correspond to barite bodies. In the present case the gravity method, which is commonly used for the location of barite because of its high density contrast with the host rocks, has failed,

Geophysical Prospection in Archaeology

2023
In recent decades, Applied Geophysics has become firmly established among geoscientific methods in archaeology for the non-destructive prospection of archaeological remains in the subsurface. Significant contributions have been made by technical developments towards mobile multi-channel platforms that can survey even very large areas of Hundreds of ...

Geophysical approaches to the archaeological prospection of early modern battlefield landscapes: a review of methods and objectives

Journal of Conflict Archaeology
This paper reviews methodological approaches in battlefield archaeology with a focus on sites of the early modern period, ca. 17th-19th century. The challenges associated with the prospection of these sites partially explains the relative lack of serious

UNITS IN GEOPHYSICAL PROSPECTING*

Geophysical Prospecting, 1967
ABSTRACTA system of geophysical units is proposed which is based on the International System of Units, using the meter, the kilogram, the second and the ampere as fundamental units. A historical introduction is given and the reasons for preferring the use of the International System of Units in exploration geophysics, are explained.At the meeting of ...

Geophysical Prospecting in Australia

Australian Surveyor, 1932
Abstract THE EARTH RESISTIVITY METHOD There are several earth resistivity methods, but the one to be described was developed for purposes of pure scientific research by Gish and Rooney of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. It is designed simply to measure the mean resistivity of the ground in any locality.

Geophysical Prospecting for Oil

Nature, 1941
IN the last few months a number of very welcome books have been published in the United States on the subject of geophysical prospecting. Of these, the present work fulfils a very useful purpose, as it is written mainly for the layman, that is the petroleum geologist and the petroleum engineer.

Alluvium and geophysical prospection

Archaeological Prospection, 2001
AbstractThe use of fluxgate gradiometry to investigate archaeological features under >1 m of alluvium is a known problem. However, the frequent opinion that gradiometry has no role in the alluvial environment is incorrect. It is more accurate to say that the results of geophysical surveys are highly variable, as it is often overlooked that the ...

Contribution of Geophysical Prospecting to Geohazard Evaluation

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006
The physical properties of the subsoil are studied using geophysical methods. These studies are always indirect, such as gravimetric, magnetometric, magnetotelluric or reflection‐refraction seismic surveys and are often combined to obtain more accurate and reliable results.
