【 摘 要 】

The objectives of this project is to demonstrate the use of a new geophysical system to collect economically competitive induced polarization (IP) data using natural electromagnetic (EM) field as a source. The proposed technology uses naturally-existing EM fields, which provides greater depth of exploration and significant economic, energy, environmental and safety benefits.
