Several radio transmitters operate throughout the world in the VLF range, 15-30 kHz, and are used mainly for marine navigation, communication with submersed submarines, and other purposes. The principle of VLF subsurface exploration is simple. At large distances from the transmitter, the EM field is effectively planar and horizontal. A conductor that strikes in the [...]

The Brazilian Geophysical Society (SBGf) is organizing in 2010 a Forum to focus discussions on the application of non-seismic methods for Oil and Gas Exploration. Modern geophysics was born with non-seismic methods when Conrad Schlumberger conceived the revolutionary idea of using electrical measurements to map subsurface rock bodies in 1912. After almost a century the [...]
Indonesian-focussed Robust Resources has revealed that a 3D IP-Resistivity survey over the flagship Lakuwahi target, as well as new drilling results, have significantly extended the discovery target zones and therefore the gold and base metal resource potential on Romang Island. The IP-Resistivity geophysical survey commenced on 24 March 2010, and field data collection is 50% [...]
