Geophysical prospecting is an applied science and the range of
scientific principles to be applied is very wide. In this
collection of original papers, the application of many different
principles is described in the search for sulphides, other metallic
ores and radioactive deposits. The papers are all concerned with
surface observations and cover both the theory and the practice of
the methods used. In all cases the advan tages and disadvantages of
the methods are described and their role in the detection of
mineral deposits is discussed and placed in context.
Electromagnetic methods are covered in detail, involving the use of
both electric and magnetic field effects. Techniques are described
involv ing observations both at a number of discrete frequencies
and with continuously changing frequency. In spite of the diversity
of method it is interesting to note the strong links between the
papers; two chapters, for example, start from the same fundamental
illustration, first published by Won, of the basic relationship
between source frequency, ground con ductivity and depth of
penetration. The all-important economic aspects are not forgotten
and the first chapter assesses the statistics of performance and
describes their use in the shaping and management of an exploration
programme. The editor takes this opportunity to thank the busy men
who have set aside time to write these contributions."
