GSM-19T used to survey Au-Ag deposit in Chukotka, in the far east of Russia

Posted by GemSystems in Magnetometers News & Events

We are posting an article, curtesy of the Authors (Ermolin Evgenii, Ingerov Olex, and Savichev Andrew), depicting a successful geophysical survey of an extension of a known ore vein in the Chukotka region of Russia, in which our own GSM-19t Proton Magnetometer was used for the ground magnetic survey. GEM Systems is happy to have contributed to the findings and publication. Thanks to the authors for allowing us to share this article. The physical-geological model of the epithermal Au-Ag deposit (Chukotka) on the basis of the integration of geophysical and geochemical investigations

Magnetometers and archaeological investigations

Posted by GemSystems in Magnetometers

Since the early 1950’s magnetometers have been used in archaeological investigations and that is why GEM Systems is joining over 3,000 archaeologists in San Francisco for the 80th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Why don’t you drop by booth 110 in Grand Ballroom B, at the San Francisco Hilton to see the latest technology available to non-invasively evaluate an archaeological site. booth 110 in Grand Ballroom B, at the San Francisco Hilton

Robotic Geophysical Mapping

Posted by GemSystems in Magnetometers

GEM Systems is collaborating with Carleton University on a 6 month project to demonstrate that the Canadian Kapvik space exploration rover can be used to make geomagnetic measurements. The goal of the project will be to demonstrate that that the two (2) technologies (magnetometer and rover) can work together. It is anticipated that the development of a custom-made boom for the rover will be required to overcome the magnetic interference of Kapvik. Through the project GEM Systems will demonstrate that its UAV Magnetometer sensor is lightweight and versatile enough to be used on a high tech rover, in addition to a…

Magnetics in Archaeology

Posted by Gem Systems in Magnetometers

Magnetics are an increasingly key exploration method for archaeological applications. Main benefits lie in the ability to resolve details non-invasively, the wide range of artifacts and cultural affects that are detectable, and the low-cost of magnetics in comparison to other geophysical methods. Having detailed knowledge of a site prior to investigation reduces excavation costs while ensuring that no part of the site is missed. In addition, as many projects are time sensitive, availability of a rapid, effective method may mean the difference between recovery and non-recovery. GEM’s unique Overhauser & Potassium magnetometer/gradiometer systems combine data quality, survey efficiency,…
