B vs vs dB/ dB/ dt dt B Advantages of measuring B rather than dB/ dt dt are well are well Advantages of measuring B rather than dB/ documented in papers by Macnae Macnae, Le Roux, Osmond at , Le Roux, Osmond at documented in papers by SEG Workshop in 2006 and at Exploration ‘ ‘07. 07. SEG Workshop in 2006 and at Exploration • Increased S/N of B relative to dB/ • Increased S/N of B relative to dB/ dt dt at late time at late time • Increased S/N of B relative to dB/ • Increased S/N of B relative to dB/ dt dt during on during on- -time time • Greater response for higher decay constant targets • Greater response for higher decay constant targets - high conductivity (higher grade) ore bodies high conductivity (higher grade) ore bodies - - large ore bodies large ore bodies - • Lower • Lower sferic sferic noise noise Disadvantages - - sensor movement noise sensor movement noise Disadvantages - geomagnetic fluctuation noise geomagnetic fluctuation noise -
