Equipment

Geophysical

Ground Penetrating Radar:

  • Mala GX (Ground Explorer) ground penetrating radar system with 450, 160, and 80 MHz antennae, with integrated differential GPS receivers. System includes a Rough Terrain Cart, a Road Cart (for roads and highways). The 450 and 160 MHz antenna use a proprietary  GX console. The 80 MHz antenna is a newer version and uses an app on an android phone or tablet.
  • Impulse Radar CO730 GPR system. This is a dual frequency GPR system with an antenna that has 300 MHz and 70 MHz frequencies and an integrated differential GPS receiver. It uses an app on an android device to collect the data.

Seismic:

  • A 24 channel Geometrics Geode seismograph with one cable that has 24, 4 Hz P-wave geophones 
  • A Tromino Blue, 3 component seismograph with a remote trigger
  • Lenartz LE-1DV seismometer with a Ref-Tek RT-130 data logger
  • We also have a trailer mounted GISCO accelerated mechanical weight drop. I think it is 30 of 50 kg.

Electromagnetics:

  • Geonics EM-38 MK1 ground conductivity meter. We do not have a data collector for it. This system measures conductivity at either 0.75 or 1.5 meters.
  • GF Instruments CMD-Explorer 6L. This is a 6 coil EM unit that collects conductivity at 6 different depths simultaneously, from 0.3 to 6.3 meters, or from 0.15 to 3.15 meters.

Electrical Resistivity:

  • ABEM Terrameter LS2 electrical resistivity system. We have a cables with 64 electrodes (4x16) with 5 m takeouts, which can image 320 m long profiles (or longer with roll-along) that image to about 45 meters deep. We also have cables with 82 electrodes (4x21) with 10 m takeouts, which can image 820 m long profiles (or longer with roll-along) to depths of about 160 m.
  • AGI Instruments Sting R1 Earth Resistivity Meter (standard 4 electrode system with about 200 ft of cable)
     

GPS:

Emlid RS2 receivers (2) and an Emlid RS3 receiver (1).
