Potentail-field and gamma-ray Spectrometry Methods

This course covers gravity, magnetic and gamma-ray spectrometry methods, including a discussion of the relevant physical properties, the background theory, instrumentation and procedures to collect the data using ground, airborne and drill hole equipment. Students will learn methods for processing the data (e.g. filtering, gridding, continuation, reduction to the pole) and how to interpret the data using qualitative methods and forward and inverse modelling methods. Case history examples will be discussed. PREREQ: GEOL 1006; PHYS 1006 /1007; MATH 1036 or 1912. Recommended MATH 2037. Or equivalents. Students cannot retain credits for both GEOL 4826 and GEOL 5826.
