Geo Technical Services:


Geo Technical Services often provide the knowledge and experience needed in a project, but don’t directly generate the data required. The data is generated through metallurgical testing and technical statistics by the following Geo Physical Equipments
Electrical Resistivity Imaging System
Electrical Resistivity Imaging System

The Electrical Resistivity Imaging System allows the determination of the spatial distribution of the resistive characteristics of the subsurface. This property is affected by lithology, pore fluid chemistry, and water content. The method can be applied at a wide range of field scales and differing geometries (surface, borehole, marine).

Electrical Resistivity Imaging System is a well-established method which is relatively easy to carry out.

Applications include:

Determine lithology / subsurface structure,

Groundwater resource studies and plume detection,

Monitoring tracer experiments,

Fault mapping,

Archaeological site investigation.
Electromagnetic Instruments
Electromagnetic Instruments

Electromagnetic Instruments are for conductivity survey and sensitive to variations in electrical properties of subsurface materials and can map out regions with enhanced conductivity because of the presence of fluids, metals, or other variations. Electromagnetic induction instruments induce currents in conductors within the subsurface without having to make direct contact with the ground.

Electromagnetic induction is a rapidly acquired method which is relatively easy to carry out.

Applications include:

Soil mapping,

Mapping lateral changes in geology,

Fault mapping,

Detecting and mapping contaminant plumes,

Mapping buried drums, tanks and metal utilities,

Archaeological site investigation.
Seismic refraction and reflection Surveying System
Seismic refraction and reflection Surveying System

Seismic refraction and reflection Surveying System measure the transmission of sound waves through the subsurface generated using a hammer blow or explosive energy source. Individual subsurface layer depths and thickness can be calculated based on the analysis of sonic wave arrival times.

Typical applications of seismic surveying include:

Depth to water table,

Depth to bedrock,

Subsurface stratigraphy,

Locating paleo channels,

Identifying faults and fracture zones.
Magnetometers
Magnetometers

Magnetometers are in a magnetic survey variations in the Earth's magnetic field are measured. The method has the advantage of being one of the easiest and cheapest geophysical techniques to carry out, since large areas can be covered quickly at a low cost and few corrections to the field data are required.

Magnetic surveying has been widely used for many years in the mineral and oil exploration industries but with recent advances in the speed of operation and resolution of portable systems can be used for industrial and environmental applications.

Applications include:


The detection of abandoned mine shafts and adits,

Detection of man-made targets such as brick lined shafts or the remains of ancient dwellings,

Location of underground storage tanks and buried steel drums,

Mapping contaminated sediments,

Archaeological site investigation.
GPR Ground Penetrating Radar System
GPR Ground Penetrating Radar System

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is the general term applied to techniques which employ radio waves, typically in the 1 to 1000 MHz frequency range, to map structures and features buried in the ground (or in man-made structures). Historically, GPR was primarily focused on mapping structures in the ground; more recently GPR has been used in non-destructive testing of non-metallic structures.

The concept of applying radio waves to probe the internal structure of the ground is not new. Without doubt the most successful early work in this area was the use of radio echo sounders to map the thickness of ice sheets in the Arctic and Antarctic and sound the thickness of glaciers. Work with GPR in non-ice environments started in the early 1970s. Early work focused on permafrost soil applications.

GPR applications are limited only by the imagination and availability of suitable instrumentation. These days, GPR is being used in many different areas including locating buried utilities, mine site evaluation, forensic investigations, archaeological digs, searching for buried landmines and unexploded ordnance, and measuring snow and ice thickness and quality for ski slope management and avalanche prediction, to name a few.
3D Underground Scanning System
3D Underground Scanning System

3D Underground Scanning System is the process of analyzing an underground object or environment to collect data on its shape and possibly its appearance (e.g. colour). The collected data can then be used to construct digital 3D images. An Underground 3D Scanning System can be based on many different technologies, each with its own limitations, advantages and costs.
Underground Metal Detector
Underground Metal Detector

Underground Metal Detector is an instrument that detects the presence of metals beneath the ground. Underground Metal detectors are useful for finding metal inclusions hidden within objects, or metal objects buried underground. They often consist of a handheld unit with a sensor probe which can be swept over the ground or other objects.
Radiation Survey Meters
Radiation Survey Meters

Radiation Survey Meters are hand-held radiation measurement instruments used to check such as personnel, equipment and the environment for radioactive contamination and ambient radiation. The hand-held survey meter is probably the most familiar radiation measuring device owing to its wide and visible use.

The Geiger counter, widely used for the measurement of alpha, beta and gamma levels and X-ray measurements.
